Ipswich Town v Sunderland on TV: Live Streaming Details
Ipswich Town v Sunderland kicks off at 15:00 BST on Saturday 22nd August 2026, which falls within the UK broadcast blackout, so the game is not being shown live on television in this country.
Highlights will be available on Match of the Day, while both clubs offer live audio commentary to subscribers through their official apps.
Ipswich Town return to the Premier League on Saturday afternoon, having secured automatic promotion from the Championship with 84 points last season.
Gary O’Neil takes charge for his first competitive game since replacing Kieran McKenna, with the club having spent in excess of £100m on 10 new arrivals this summer.
As many as six players could make their full debuts, including goalkeeper Kjell Scherpen, Issa Diop, Sasa Lukic, Daizen Maeda and club record signing Emersonn.
Florentino Luis and Abdul Fatawu are being assessed after picking up knocks, while Jack Taylor and Azor Matusiwa are also doubtful.
Sunderland arrive having exceeded all expectations last season, finishing seventh to qualify for Europe for the first time since 1973.
Regis Le Bris has enjoyed a quieter window this summer, with 34 year old Belgium defender Thomas Meunier arriving on a free transfer as the club’s sole addition so far.
Nordi Mukiele, Omar Alderete and Meunier have all recovered from minor injuries, leaving Simon Adingra as the only absentee with an ankle problem.
The Black Cats have won their opening league fixture in each of the last two seasons, though Ipswich did the double over them when the sides last met in the 2023-24 Championship campaign.
