Sunderland face Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship tomorrow night.

Sunderland head to Hillsborough on Friday night where they face a struggling Sheffield Wednesday side in the Championship.

Tony Mowbray's men currently sit in 5th place of the Championship table despite suffering a defeat at home to Cardiff City last weekend.

Before that, the Black Cats were on a three-game winning streak, coming after their slow start to the 2023/24 campaign.

Sunderland team news

Sunderland have a few injuries in the first-team right now, though Mowbray was tight-lipped about the status of his sidelined players ahead of this game.

But the Sunderland boss did rule Bradley Dack and Pierre Ekwah out of this one.

Elsewhere, it seems like Dennis Cirkin, Aji Alese, Jay Matete, and Corry Evans remain sidelined.

Mowbray did however suggest that Patrick Roberts may be back in the starting XI soon, possibly vs Sheffield Wednesday.

Predicted line-up

Patterson (GK)

Huggins

Ballard

O'Nien

Hume

Neil

Pritchard

Roberts

Bellingham

Clarke

Burstow

Expect a new-unchanged line-up tomorrow night, with Roberts coming in for Abdoullah Ba being the only possible change.

Sunderland seem to have a very settled back-line right now and a settled front-line too, with Mason Burstow looking set to play up top.

Nazariy Rusyn may be pushing for a start having impressed for the U21s in midweek.

The game tomorrow kicks off at 8pm.
