Team News

Sunderland
Leeds
  • Interim manager Mike Dodds could make one change to the side that beat West Brom with Alex Pritchard replacing Adil Aouchiche in midfield.
  • Dennis Cirkin and Jewison Bennette are among five confirmed absentees for the Black Cats in midweek.
  • Daniel Farke could opt for an unchanged starting XI when his side makes the trip to the Stadium of Light on Tuesday night.
  • Right-back Luke Ayling remains a doubt through injury while Ian Poveda is on international duty with Colombia.

Prediction

  • Sunderland struck twice in the final 20 minutes of Saturday's clash with West Brom as they claimed a much-needed three points at the Stadium of Light.
  • The managerless hosts climbed into the top six and ended a three-match winless streak with that result.
  • Leeds were at their clinical and efficient best at the weekend as they closed out a 2-0 away win against Jon Dahl Tomasson's Blackburn side.
  • Daniel Farke's men have won six and drawn one of their last seven Championship matches but remain seven points behind second-placed Ipswich.
