Sunderland's Colback relishing double-header with Arsenal

Jack Colback is confident Sunderland will give a good account of themselves when they face Arsenal over successive weekends. Arsene Wenger's men await the Black Cats in the fifth round of the FA Cup on February 18, but not before they head for Wearside in the Premier League this Saturday.

The 22 year old said: "It's a good opportunity for us. They come up to our place twice and I am sure they will be fearing us as much as we fear them.

"It should be a good game, the one on Saturday, and hopefully we can progress like we have been doing and keep on winning.

"We know what to expect from them. They pass it well and we like to do the same.

"I'm sure it will be an open game, and enjoyable game and hopefully we can come out with the three points."
