Manchester City host Sunderland at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday aiming to continue their flawless start to the Premier League season. The champions sit second in the table with 12 points from four games and are on a five-match winning streak across all competitions.
Their most recent outing was a dominant 5-0 home victory over Norwich, with Floyd Samba scoring twice. The team's form has been built on solid defence, conceding only two league goals so far. Erling Haaland leads the scoring charts with four goals in four appearances this term.
Sunderland arrive in Manchester sitting 14th, having won three of their last five matches. The last meeting between the sides ended in a goalless draw at the Stadium of Light on New Year's Day. City will be confident of improving on that result given their current momentum.
Pep Guardiola's side have a full squad available and will look to their standings position as motivation to keep pressure on the league leaders. The fixture is the next challenge in a busy period, with the full schedule available on the club's fixtures page. A win would maintain their 100% record ahead of the next international break.
