We welcome the Black Cats to the Etihad Stadium in a 15:00 (UK) kick-off on Saturday 6 December.
Once staples of the top-flight, Sunderland are enjoying their first Premier League campaign since 2016/17.
City v Sunderland | Match preview
That’s why this video ends with Pep Guardiola’s very first league match in charge of City, when Sergio Aguero and a Paddy McNair own goal earned us the points.
Before that, you’ll see some special Yaya Toure strikes while the likes of Samir Nasri, Frank Lampard, Stevan Jovetic, Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling and Wilfried Bony also feature.
In fact, we’ve never lost a Premier League game against Sunderland at the Etihad, winning nine and drawing the other two meetings.
Here’s hoping we can extend that record this weekend.
In the meantime, reflect on some memorable moments of years gone by at the top of the page.
Limited City v Sunderland tickets available
Limited tickets remain for qualifying members for City’s Premier League clash with Sunderland at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday 6 December.
Sitting second in the table, Pep Guardiola’s side are looking to keep pressure on league leaders Arsenal as we approach the halfway point of the campaign.
The newly promoted Black Cats will provide a stern test having enjoyed a fabulous return to the top-flight so far.
This is in fact the first Etihad meeting between the sides since Pep’s very first game in charge of City all the way back in 2016!
