Of Arsenal vs Sunderland

Tonight, my Arsenal will take on RX's sunderland at the Emirates Stadium in the premiership, the last time out, it took a late equaliser from the young guns to savage a point and save some much needed pride..

Now zoom back into reality, Arsenal are 5th place in the table while Sunderland's Asst Mgr has taken over the top job at the club.. with a rejuvenating 4-0 win over Cardiff in the FA Cup, Arsenal looks good towards the game, but take in mind that Cardiff never really turned up for the game and Sunderland won't allow the kind of space we had against the welsh team..

As it is, 2 goal scorer Eduardo is out with a hamstring, the usual absentees are still out, Clichy returns following his gashed head from the North London Derby, this team should turn up for the afternoon:

Van Persie - Bendtner

Nasri - Denilson - Song - Eboue

Clichy - Djouro - Toure - Sagna

Alumunia

Djouro's height is a much needed force against high balls we expect from sunderland, while eboue returns from suspension with not much options on the right flank, he should start the game..

Wenger has spoken that Ashravin (The Owl) will feature, but he isn't sure in what way yet, i'm expecting a substitute appearance for Ashravin if we are holding on to a lead in the 2nd half. His guile and owl eye to pick a pass or that critical opening might just open up the sunderland backline..

Arsenal 2-0 Sunderland
