Where to sit at the Etihad Stadium

The Etihad is a modern bowl-shaped stadium offering good sightlines from virtually every seat, with the South Stand traditionally the loudest section for home supporters.

A Premier League game against Ipswich Town follows at the Etihad, along with another Champions League fixture at home to AEK Athens and a trip to Villa Park for Aston Villa vs Manchester City.

Sunderland's schedule

Sunderland have a varied run of fixtures ahead, including an away trip to Brighton, a Europa League league-phase match against Torreense in Portugal, an away Premier League game at AFC Bournemouth, a further European fixture against Lech Poznań, and a home match against Leeds United at the Stadium of Light.

The wider picture
