The season is still fairly new and the League One table has to be read with caution. So far Swindon Town find themselves in 15th position and Sunderland are placed 7th.

Sunderland form and stats
Sunderland are still undefeated on their travels in the League One. They have only played two games though, winning one and drawing the other.
357 minutes! That's how long the Sunderland goalkeeper Lee Burge and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
Sunderland had fun at their own home (The Energy Check County Ground) last time out, beating Carlisle United 5-3. D. Hume, C. Maguire (2), J. Diamond and C. Wyke scored. Preceding that game, the 0-0 draw paying a visit to Charlton Athletic.
A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Sunderland, as mentioned above. 8 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?
After this away game Sunderland return home for a League One game against Crewe Alexandra. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Sunderland have the goal stats of 2-0 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
