Sunderland team news

SAFC head coach Regis Le Bris is likely to hand a start for Ali Alese to replace the suspended Chris Mepham here.

Depending on where Luke O'Nien starts in the back four, Alese will be deployed either as a centre-back or left-back, while Adil Aouchiche and Eliezer Mayenda push for a start in the final third.

Stoke City team news

The Potters boss Narcis Pelach could stick to a back three of Ben Wilmot, Ashley Phillips and skipper Ben Gibson.

Meanwhile, Andrew Moran and Lewis Koumas will eye recalls to the XI, with the lineup otherwise looking similar to the Burnley loss.
