Team News

Sunderland
Swansea
  • Expect Tony Mowbray to make just one change to the side that drew 1-1 with Blackpool last time out in the league with Corry Evans returning to partner Dan Neil in midfield.
  • Niall Huggins and Danny Batth are both back in training, but are expected to miss out this weekend.
  • Liam Walsh is now fully integrated back into first-team training, but is not yet fit enough to feature in the first-team squad.
  • Morgan Whittaker will also miss out as the club negotiates a transfer for the former Plymouth loanee.

Prediction

  • Two late goals helped Sunderland secure a last-gasp FA Cup comeback win against Shrewsbury last time out. Tony Mowbray's side are building some impressive momentum and are now unbeaten in their last five games in all competitions.
  • Swansea will look to improve upon a 2-1 home defeat against league leaders Burnley when they travel to the Stadium of Light this weekend. The Welsh side are winless in seven league games away from home ahead of the clash with Sunderland.
