Sunderland’s Europa League match against Dinamo Zagreb was scheduled to kick off at 8:00 p.m. GMT at the Stadium of Light on Thursday, but a reliable current score could not be confirmed at the time of this check. Available match pages showed conflicting or apparently stale status information, so neither a score nor a match minute can be reported with confidence.
The fixture is part of matchday four of the league phase. Sunderland entered the round with seven points from three games, while Dinamo Zagreb had four. The result will affect both clubs’ positions in the race for the knockout rounds, although their exact places will also depend on other matches.

What is the Sunderland vs Dinamo Zagreb score?
The score remains unconfirmed in the sources available for this update. One match page displayed 0–0 alongside a pending status, while another displayed a pre-match status despite the scheduled kickoff having passed. A 0–0 figure on a page that has not established the game’s status is not enough to verify a live score.

How did Sunderland and Dinamo Zagreb arrive at the match?
Before matchday four, Sunderland had two wins and a draw in the league phase. UEFA’s results list a 1–0 home win over AZ Alkmaar, a 2–1 away win over Torreense and a 1–1 draw at Lech Poznań. That left Sunderland on seven points from three matches.
Dinamo Zagreb began with a 0–0 draw at Hapoel Beer-Sheva, beat Anderlecht 1–0 at home and then lost 4–2 at home to NEC Nijmegen. Those results left the Croatian club on four points. The previous matches explain the teams’ starting positions; they do not establish what happened at the Stadium of Light.
In its pre-match table, TNT Sports listed Sunderland ninth and Dinamo 18th. Those rankings were a starting snapshot and can change as other matchday-four results are recorded.
What was Sunderland’s team news?
Sunderland announced before the match that winger Chemsdine Talbi had been added to its UEFA squad in place of Habib Diarra. The club said Diarra had sustained a hamstring injury in training and faced a spell on the sidelines. Talbi’s eligibility did not, by itself, confirm that he would start or appear in the game.
In a separate pre-match fitness update, Sunderland also said Romaine Mundle and Dan Ballard were set to miss the fixture as they continued their recoveries. Readers looking for the actual starting teams and substitutions should check a current match report, since pre-match availability can change.
What does the result mean for the Europa League table?
Each club plays eight different opponents in the league phase. The top eight advance directly to the round of 16, while clubs finishing ninth through 24th enter the knockout-phase playoffs. Teams finishing below 24th are eliminated, according to UEFA’s explanation of the standings.
A Sunderland win would take its total from seven to 10 points; a draw would take it to eight. Dinamo would move from four to seven points with a win or to five with a draw. Those are conditional totals for this fixture, not confirmed outcomes, and neither side’s final league-phase position would be settled by this one match.
Sunderland’s next scheduled Europa League game is at home against Jagiellonia on November 26, according to UEFA’s team-by-team fixture list. Four league-phase matchdays remain after this round, leaving further opportunities to improve either club’s position.
