Sunderland face toughest test so far
SUNDERLAND, aiming to make this their promotion season, will face their toughest home test so far tomorrow afternoon, when they take on a strong and experienced Sheffield Wednesday side at Roker Park. Indications are that these sides, relegated together two years ago, will be leading contenders for a return to the First Division.
