Arsenal vs Sunderland Live Streaming: Watch FA Cup Games Live
By Josh Sippie
Arsenal will start off their FA Cup campaign with a matchup against the Black Cats of Sunderland. Here is a full analysis of where to watch the game.
Arsenal enter the FA Cup with a third round matchup against Sunderland. The Black Cats are battling the relegation zone and will be eyeing a good showing in the FA Cup in order to alleviate those pressures. However, Sam Allardyce has made it painfully obviously that he will not be able to send out all of his regulars because the Premier League had to go and schedule a match midweek. In his eyes, the EPL continues to devalue the FA Cup with such scheduling ‘gaffs’.

As such, Arsenal should also be able to make rotations, but as is always the case with Arsene Wenger, we don’t know if he will. He wants to win the FA Cup for the third straight year and when Wenger gets this ambitious, he is not going to rest Mesut Ozil or Olivier Giroud. He is going to expect them to be fit enough to play and then play against on Wednesday.
Alexis Sanchez was supposed to be back for this game, however he was deemed ‘not ready’ by the boss due to precautionary measures. It is a hamstring after all and even the slightest misstep can cause a massive setback. While it has to be driving Alexis crazy, he will have to wait another day. However, it also means he probably will not be available for the midweek game either.

Also newsworthy, Mohamed Elneny was supposed to be secured by now, but Wenger has noted that it is a ‘complicated’ issue that will take another two to three days to get sorted out. The complications are most likely due to trouble obtaining a work visa, so let’s hope that that can get done soon and Arsenal’s midfield can be united with his midfield brilliance.
Other than that, this Arsenal squad is the same we have seen over the past couple months. With that in mind, let’s talk about where the game can be seen.
The match can be seen on Fox Sports 1. That’s it as far as the television. In terms of streaming, the game can be streamed on Fox Sports Go, Fox Soccer 2GO USA and Arsenal Player via a valid subscription.
