The pair face off in League One on Wearside today with Sunderland looking to record back-to-back wins after Tuesday’s 5-0 victory over Morecambe.

That has left Lee Johnson’s team in fourth position in League One with Sunderland just two points of pace-setters Rotherham United and Wigan Athletic, although the Latics have a game in hand on the Black Cats.

@DannyConnollyx: “Bored of this lineup. Play someone else.”

@LiamSAFC17: “Calling a Broadhead masterclass.”

@nicholaswilso11: “Winchester masterclass inbound.”

@Philip_RJ89: “Nice to see some continuity of selection. Injury-enforced, to a point, but it’s allowing the likes of Leon Dajaku to continue their upturn in form, and for players to start building combinations with each other. Tough test today, but I’m confident of victory! #SAFC”

@redman_aiden: “Scary how bad that bench is.”

@AdamGibson112: “No reason to change it. Being playing well as is.”
