Tottenham vs Sunderland Tickets

Buy Tottenham vs Sunderland tickets for the 2026/27 Season, with the Premier League meeting at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium scheduled for Saturday 30 January 2027. It is currently listed for a 16:00 kick-off, although Saturday Premier League games normally start at 12:30, 15:00 or 17:30, so expect the time to be confirmed once the broadcast picks are announced. Sunderland arrive having taken four points from Spurs last season, the first time they had avoided defeat in both league meetings since 2008/09.

That gives the fixture a point to prove for Tottenham Hotspur. The only previous meeting at the new stadium, in January 2026, finished 1-1, and Sunderland then won 1-0 at the Stadium of Light in April to end a 15-match unbeaten run for Spurs in the fixture.

Across the Premier League era the record still favours Spurs heavily, with 21 wins from 34 meetings. What follows covers prices, where to sit, hospitality, delivery and every Premier League meeting between the sides.

Why This One Sells

Demand starts with the ground. The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium holds 62,850 and is one of the most visited venues in English football, with a single-tier South Stand of around 17,500 behind one goal that gives the home end its noise. Spurs home games sell strongly across the season, and a Saturday fixture adds weekend visitors to the mix.

Sunderland bring one of the most loyal followings in the country. The Premier League away allocation of 3,000 in the north-east corner is likely to sell out quickly for a trip to London, even with Sunderland around 270 miles away, and last season's results will only add to the appetite.

The recent form adds interest. Sunderland returned to the Premier League in 2025 after eight years away, and their draw in London and win at home last season showed they can compete in this fixture. Spurs supporters will expect a response on their own ground.

Both clubs arrive with recent success to build on. Spurs won the Europa League in 2025, their first major trophy since 2008, while Sunderland returned to the top flight through the Championship play-off final at Wembley that same year. The two fan bases have had plenty to celebrate, and both travel to matches like this in good voice.

Timing plays a part too. A late-January Saturday falls in the heart of the season, when points matter at both ends of the table, and a weekend fixture in London draws visitors from across the UK and overseas.

Can You Buy Tottenham vs Sunderland Tickets Without Membership?

Usually not through the club. Tottenham sell most Premier League tickets to season ticket holders and paid members, with priority based on membership level and previous purchases. General sale is rare for league games, and when it happens it tends to be limited to lower-demand fixtures and a small number of seats.

The club also runs a ticket exchange for season ticket holders who cannot attend. It adds supply close to matchday, but access is limited to members, and seats for a weekend fixture go quickly once listed.

Sunderland supporters buy through their own club, which allocates away tickets using a loyalty points system that favours season ticket holders and regular away travellers. With a full 3,000 allocation likely to be in demand, casual Sunderland fans may struggle to buy directly.

For buyers without membership, or those who want seats together and delivery confirmed before travelling, the verified resale market is the practical route. On 1BoxOffice you can compare listings by block, check whether seats are sold together and read the delivery terms before paying.

Sunderland fans without an away ticket should be realistic. Home sections are for home supporters, and red and white in a home block will draw attention from stewards. A neutral seat in the upper tiers, with colours left at home, is the sensible option.

What You'll Pay and Why

Five factors shape the price here. Seat location comes first, with central West Stand seats at the top of the range. Demand follows, with Spurs home games consistently among the more expensive in the league. Timing, the Premier League context and the hospitality tier complete the picture for the 2026/27 season.

Ticket Type Resale Price Range Best For Notes
North Stand upper tier £95 – £140 Budget-conscious fans Elevated end view of the whole pitch
East or West Stand upper tier £110 – £170 First-time visitors High side-on view with a tactical overview
Lower tier central £150 – £250+ Fans who want to be close Near the halfway line; limited supply
Premium seating £220 – £350+ Couples and small groups Padded central seats in the West Stand
Hospitality / VIP £350 – £750+ Corporate guests and special occasions Lounge access, dining and a central seat

Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.

Compare the total including fees rather than the headline figure. Two seats in the same block can end up closer in price than they first look once booking and delivery charges are added.

The main trigger for prices is the confirmation of the kick-off time, which settles travel plans and brings a wave of demand. Buying before that announcement usually means paying less, especially for pairs in the upper tiers.

Group size matters too. Pairs and single seats come up far more often than blocks of four or more, and larger groups in central lower-tier sections are scarce. Splitting a group into pairs across neighbouring rows can bring the average price down.

Every order on 1BoxOffice is covered by the 150% money-back guarantee, which applies if tickets are not delivered or do not grant entry. That protection matters at a ground where tickets are digital and linked to member accounts, since buying from strangers on social media leaves you with no recourse if a transfer fails.

Picking the Right Seat at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium opened in April 2019 on the site of White Hart Lane. The single-tier South Stand is the home end, the West Stand is the main stand with most of the hospitality, the East Stand runs along the opposite touchline and the North Stand closes the other end, with away fans in the lower tier of the north-east corner. The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium seating plan shows every block before you choose.

Area What It Suits Pricing Bracket Guidance
South Stand Home fans chasing atmosphere Mid to high Single-tier home end of around 17,500
West Stand, central Premium and hospitality buyers High Main stand with the lounges and business seats
East Stand Neutral buyers and first-time visitors Mid to high Clear side-on view in the lower or upper tier
North Stand upper tier Value seekers Mid Elevated end view at a lower price
Away section, north-east corner lower tier Sunderland supporters Club allocation 3,000 places; turnstiles reached from Northumberland Park via Park Lane
North-west corner family area Families with juniors Mid Juniors must sit with an adult aged 18 or over

Neutral buyers should choose the East Stand or the upper tier of the West Stand and avoid Sunderland colours in home blocks. For the full matchday picture from transport to entry, the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium tickets guide covers the whole ground.

The stands rise steeply and sit close to the pitch, so even the upper tiers give a clear view. The lower tiers of the East and South stands bring you closest to the action, while the upper East Stand is a strong choice for a tactical overview.

The South Stand is the place for noise. Its single tier is designed to hold sound in, and the atmosphere there is at its loudest on a big day, but it is a home end in every sense, so visiting or neutral fans are better placed elsewhere.

The stadium has features found at few other grounds. The grass pitch slides away to reveal an artificial surface used for NFL games, and the South Stand concourse includes a 65-metre bar and an on-site microbrewery. Arrive early and there is plenty to do before kick-off without leaving the ground.

The roof covers almost every seat, which matters on a January afternoon in north London. Dress in layers and allow time for bag checks at the turnstiles, particularly in the last half hour before kick-off.

Accessible positions for wheelchair users and their companions are spread across the stands, but they are allocated through the club. If you need an accessible seat, contact Tottenham before buying on the resale market, as standard listings may not suit specific access requirements.

Matchday With the Extras

The stadium was built with hospitality at its core, with more than one lounge in the West Stand and options that range from business seats to private boxes. One of the most talked-about is a club lounge beside the players' tunnel, where guests watch the teams walk out through a glass wall.

Hospitality Option Typical Buyer Main Appeal
Business seat Couples and solo visitors Padded central seat with lounge catering
Tunnel-view lounge package Small groups marking an occasion Dining with a view of the players' tunnel
Private box Corporate hosts Dedicated space with catering and a pitch view
Premium seat package Fans who want the view first Central seat with a lighter hospitality element

Inclusions vary by package, so check the listing for dining times, drinks and dress guidance. Smart casual is the norm, and Spurs colours are welcome in the lounges.

Hospitality is often the most reliable way to secure a central seat without membership, since packages are sold separately from the members' sales. For a weekend fixture, the better-known lounges book up weeks ahead.

For corporate groups, confirm arrival times early. Lounges open well before kick-off, and package timings will shift with the kick-off slot once the Premier League confirms the schedule.

Getting Your Tickets and Getting In

Tickets at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium are digital, and entry is by mobile ticket at the turnstiles. The method of transfer depends on how each seller holds their seats, and every listing shows its delivery type before purchase.

Delivery Type What to Check
Mobile ticket (app transfer) That the transfer reaches your account and opens before you travel
Mobile ticket (wallet pass) That the pass shows the right block, row and seat
Local collection in London The address, opening times and the ID you need to bring
Hotel delivery That your hotel expects the tickets and holds them in your name

Read the listing notes for any restrictions on block or supporter affiliation. Bring valid photo ID, charge your phone before leaving and add the ticket to your phone wallet where the app allows, as signal drops when the crowd arrives.

White Hart Lane station on the London Overground is around five minutes' walk from the ground, with trains from Liverpool Street. Northumberland Park is used for the away turnstiles, and the Victoria line to Seven Sisters or Tottenham Hale leaves a longer walk or a bus ride.

The High Road around the stadium has pubs and food spots used by home supporters, and the area near White Hart Lane station fills early on matchday. Visiting fans are usually directed towards the Northumberland Park side, where the away turnstiles sit, and should follow steward instructions after the final whistle.

Plan to reach the ground at least an hour before kick-off. The High Road and the stations fill quickly in the final hour, and there is no general parking at the stadium.

Expect tickets to arrive close to matchday. Many sellers receive or release their tickets only after the club's sales phases close, so listings often show delivery a few days before kick-off. That is normal, and the order page shows the expected dispatch window.

How Smart Buyers Pay Less

Flying In for the Match

Overseas buyers should make sure their phone can receive the mobile ticket transfer before travelling, since entry is digital. If you are travelling as a group, filter for listings that guarantee seats together and confirm the arrangement before paying. Stansted is the most convenient airport, with trains to Tottenham Hale on the line into Liverpool Street.

Premier League kick-off times are set a few weeks ahead for television, and a Saturday fixture can move to Sunday or Monday. Book flexible travel or plan a full weekend in London. Sunderland supporters usually travel by train from Sunderland or Newcastle to King's Cross, around three hours, or by coach. An early start from the North East is normal for a trip like this, so late kick-off changes matter to them too.

Heathrow and Gatwick offer the widest choice of flights from the Gulf and further afield, although both leave a longer journey across London. Allow at least two hours from either airport to the ground on a matchday.

Book accommodation early. Hotels around Liverpool Street, King's Cross and Stratford are the most practical, with direct or simple rail links to the stadium and plenty of options for the evening after the match.

How This Fixture Got Its Edge

The Premier League meeting dates back to November 1996, when Spurs won 2-0 at White Hart Lane in Sunderland's first season in the competition. Spurs won 4-0 at Roker Park later that season, in the old ground's final campaign, and they have dominated the fixture ever since, especially at home.

Sunderland's best spells came in bursts. They won 2-0 at home in November 2002 and 3-1 at the Stadium of Light in April 2010. In between, a 2-1 win at White Hart Lane in August 2008 gave them their only league victory there. After that Spurs went 15 league meetings unbeaten, a run that lasted through Sunderland's relegation in 2017 and into their return.

The first meeting at the new stadium, in January 2026, finished 1-1, and Sunderland won 1-0 at home in April to end that unbeaten run. Those results turned a fixture Spurs once took for granted into one with a genuine edge.

Key Meetings in the Premier League

What makes the fixture distinctive is how quickly it has changed. Spurs have lost only once at home to Sunderland in 17 Premier League meetings, yet the two most recent meetings show the gap is closing. January's game will show which of those stories holds.

The Numbers Between the Sides

The sides have met only once in the Premier League at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, so the figures below cover all Premier League meetings between Tottenham and Sunderland at every venue.

Metric Total

Figures compiled from Premier League match records and cross-checked against two independent results archives.

At home the record is even stronger. Spurs have won 14, drawn two and lost one of their 17 Premier League home games against Sunderland, scoring 37 and conceding 13, with the only defeat coming at White Hart Lane in August 2008.

Spurs have scored in all 17 of those home games, and they have kept six clean sheets. Sunderland have found the net in 11 of the 17 visits, so a goal for the away end is more likely than the home record alone suggests. For buyers, that points to an open game with something for both sets of supporters to cheer.

Away from London the picture is more balanced. Sunderland have won five of the 17 meetings on Wearside, and seven of the 34 meetings overall have been drawn, most of them at the Stadium of Light.
