The Black Cats make two changes from the side that drew with Peterborough on Tuesday evening - although one of those is enforced, as Reece James replaces the suspended Bryan Oviedo.

Ross' big calls come in the centre of midfield, where he recalls Lee Cattermole after the midfielder served a one-game suspension.

Captain George Honeyman, however, is forced to settle for a place on the bench meaning that Max Power keeps the captain's armband.

And Sunderland fans have been quick to react to the Scot's selection calls on social media - with most pleased with the decisions made.

Here's the best of the reaction:
