Derby County vs Sunderland: Kick-off time, TV coverage, Sky Sports details & how to watch for £14.99


Sunderland continue their campaign with an away clash against Derby County on Tuesday.
Sunderland will be eager to bounce back from the disappointment of their double penalty anguish against Burnley last time out when they face Derby County on Tuesday evening.
The Black Cats missed two golden opportunities to seal a valuable three points at Turf Moor on Friday night, but instead had to settle for a draw on the road. Wilson Isidor was the man who was thwarted on both occasions by Clarets stopper James Trafford, and speaking after the match Regis Le Bris was quick to offer his support to the striker.
He said: "He's disappointed like the team but football is like that. You can make mistakes but you have to learn from them. It's the best way to improve and grow. The team is still young and learning from experiences, this will be a big one for sure. I am sure he can put this behind him, 100%. You have to do it when you are a player with his talent and ambition. You have to deal with difficult experiences. The keeper made two good saves, they weren't poor penalties. We have to move on and take the positives."

Next up for Le Bris and his side is an away trip to Pride Park, where they will face a Derby side who they previously beat 2-0 earlier in the campaign. At the time of writing, the Rams find themselves stuck in something of a rut, having lost each of their last four league outings. As a consequence, they currently find themselves 19th in the Championship table, just one point clear of the relegation zone.
