Sunderland are back in action at Kenilworth Road against Luton Town in the Championship this Saturday.

The Championship pair face off at Kenilworth Road this weekend as Sunderland look to bounce back from their 4-2 defeat at the hands of Burnley last Saturday. Tony Mowbray’s men were two up at half-time before conceding four after the break.

Nathan Tella’s header halved the deficit, before goals from substitute Manuel Benson and winger Anass Zaroury saw Vincent Kompany’s side take the lead. Josh Brownhill then added a fourth with three minutes remaining.
