Historically, there is almost nothing between Ipswich Town and Sunderland, who meet on the opening weekend of the 2026–27 Premier League season.
Across 58 meetings, Ipswich have won 25, Sunderland 24 and nine have been draws. Their last five clashes, across the Championship and League One, have produced two wins apiece and a draw. This time, though, Sunderland look like the safer pick.
