EPL table: Arsenal go top after 2-0 win at Sunderland

Arsenal secured the top spot in the Premier League table following a 2-0 victory over Sunderland on Saturday night. The Gunners, who had previously won all three of their matches, traveled to the Stadium of Light with high aspirations. Despite a goalless first half, Bruno Guimaraes scored the opening goal in stoppage time, capitalizing on David Raya's crucial penalty save earlier in the game.

Bukayo Saka sealed the victory with a penalty in the second half, giving Arsenal a three-point lead over Manchester City, who were set to face Manchester United in the derby later that evening.
