Sunderland are preparing for their Championship match against Leeds United - but how will the hosts line up at Elland Road?
Daniel Farke's side missed the chance to go top of the Championship as they were beaten 2-1 by Coventry last time out, meaning the Whites sit third in the table. The Leeds boss has a few injury doubts ahead of the Sunderland match, with Ethan Ampadu struggling with an illness, while full-back Connor Roberts and winger Willy Gnonto are being managed back following setbacks.
Here’s how Leeds could line up against Sunderland at Elland Road:
