Anthony Patterson
25-Year-Old
Sunderland
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Patterson was excellent in his third season in the Championship, keeping 14 clean sheets while conceding just one goal per match. The step up to the Premier League is always tough for goalkeepers and Patterson is no exception. The general increase in level means Patterson will likely fall below double-digit clean sheets for the first time as Sunderland's starter. Surpassing five clean sheets could be difficult, though 100-plus saves are now in the equation. Patterson is also kind of playing for his job, since remaining the No. 1 isn't guaranteed for the entire season in the Premier League.
Starts Carabao Cup defeat
Patterson got the start during Tuesday's Carabao Cup defeat to Huddersfield Town on penalties.
ANALYSIS
Patterson is back fit after opening the season injured, and got the start during the Carabao Cup match. He's behind Robin Roefs in the pecking order despite his good showings in the Championship last season. Patterson would take over in the starting XI if Roefs gets injured, or potentially if Roefs falls into a run of poor performances.

Close call for start of season
Patterson is still battling a knock and is in a race against time to be fit for the start of the season, according to manager Regis Le Bris, per Phil Smith of the Sunderland Echo. " For Patto and Riggy, it will take a bit longer. It will probably take more like ten days for them to be able to take part in full competition. By that stage, they should be back doing everything, so hopefully they will have a chance for the first game. It's possible."
