Updated October 25, 2026: Sunderland are scheduled to host Leeds United at the Stadium of Light in Premier League Matchweek 8. The latest Premier League fixture record and Fantasy Premier League feed reviewed for this update list kickoff at 16:30 UTC. In Sunderland, the match begins at 4:30 p.m. Greenwich Mean Time (GMT, UTC+00:00). The fixture had not started in the official feed at the time of the check.
The official Premier League match page identifies Sunderland vs. Leeds United as a 2026–27 fixture. The League’s Matchweek 8 fixture feed gives the scheduled kickoff as 2026-10-25T16:30:00Z and lists the match code as 2645274. The Premier League fixture amendment notice lists Sunderland vs. Leeds at 16:30 GMT on Sunday, October 25, with Sky Sports as the UK broadcaster. Leeds United’s official fixture and matchday information confirm the Stadium of Light as the venue.
Sunday, October 25, 2026, is the United Kingdom’s autumn clock-change date. The UK government’s clock-change calendar lists October 25 as the 2026 date clocks go back and says the UK returns to Greenwich Mean Time when that happens. The change occurs in the early morning, hours before this match. At kickoff, Sunderland is on GMT (UTC+00:00), so 4:30 p.m. in Sunderland is 16:30 UTC on the same date.
That is why an older listing marked British Summer Time (BST, UTC+01:00) would be one hour ahead of the venue’s clock for this game. If a calendar or TV guide shows a different time, check both the date and time-zone label against the official match page. This conversion is based on Sunderland’s time zone on October 25; it does not depend on where a reader is located.
For viewers in the United Kingdom, the announced live-TV selection is Sky Sports. The Premier League match page currently identifies USA Network for viewers in the United States. These listings apply to the named territories; they do not establish which service holds rights in another country. Viewers elsewhere should use the Premier League’s match page or the local licensed broadcaster’s schedule to confirm the channel or stream available in their market.
Leeds United says monthly LUTV audio subscribers around the world can listen to live commentary of the fixture. This is an audio option, not confirmation of international live video coverage. Subscription terms and regional availability can vary, so check the provider’s current details before relying on the service. The Premier League match center is another official place to follow the fixture record and available match updates.
Sunderland’s latest specific fitness update located for this match was published on October 21. Head coach Régis Le Bris said Brian Brobbey had trained with the squad for 10 days and was expected to be available against Leeds after missing Sunderland’s Europa League match in Poland. Le Bris also said the club would be cautious following Brobbey’s hamstring injury. The same Sunderland update said Thomas Meunier and Wilson Isidor were progressing as they worked toward a return; it did not confirm that either would be selected for this match.
In an October 23 pre-match update, Daniel Farke described Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Anton Stach, and Noah Okafor as major doubts after they picked up knocks against Manchester United. Calvert-Lewin had a bruise on his foot, Stach had a painful foot problem, and Okafor was dealing with an adductor issue. Farke said the club would make late availability decisions. Joe Rodon remained sidelined, while Daniel James had returned to full training and was in contention. These details come from the club’s fitness update and its match preview.
The clubs’ published notes describe fitness assessments, not confirmed starting lineups. A player described as a doubt may still be available, and training alone does not confirm selection. The official match and club channels are the right places to check for team sheets close to kickoff. The latest match reports reviewed for this update discuss fitness but do not announce a new suspension for either side, so no suspension is listed here as confirmed.
Leeds United’s official appointment notice names Stuart Attwell as referee. Constantine Hatzidakis and Nick Hopton are the assistant referees, Andrew Madley is the fourth official, Craig Pawson is the video assistant referee, and Matthew Wilkes is the additional VAR. See the club’s official officials announcement for the appointment list.
Leeds United’s Stadium of Light supporter guide advises away fans to allow at least 60 minutes to reach the ground. Sunderland Railway Station is about a 10- to 15-minute walk away, and the Stadium of Light and St Peter’s Metro stations are close to the venue. The guide says Sunderland does not provide matchday parking, so drivers need to arrange parking independently and check current transport and return services before traveling.
The away section is in the North Stand, with entry through turnstiles 69–74. Leeds’ guide says the stadium is cashless and Sunderland is using an advanced search policy for this fixture. In addition to normally prohibited items, coins, vapes, power banks, flares, smoke canisters, and umbrellas are not allowed inside. Read the current guide before leaving, since entry procedures and travel arrangements can change.
Sunderland vs. Leeds United remains listed as a Matchweek 8 fixture at the Stadium of Light, with kickoff at 16:30 UTC. Because UK clocks go back earlier that morning, the venue’s correct time label is GMT (UTC+00:00). Sky Sports is the announced UK broadcaster, and the latest published club updates identify the players whose availability remains uncertain without treating predicted selections as confirmed.
