Sunderland face QPR on the final day of the regular Championship season this Saturday looking to build some positive momentum for when the play-off campaign begins next week.
Régis Le Bris will pick a strong Sunderland side as a result - so who will be in the XI and who will be on the bench? This is what we think he’ll go with...

17. Sub - Leo Hjelde

18. Sub - Salis Abdul Samed
Hasn't been able to find a level of form that puts him in contention to play a major part at Wembley but his experience could yet be important. | Frank Reid

19. Sub - Tommy Watson
Seems unlikely to get minutes now Mundle is available again but an option as an impact sub if Sunderland are chasing the game. | Frank Reid

20. Sub - Harrison Jones
Sunderland have been hopeful that Aji Alese might be able to make the bench but Jones could keep his place after a good campaign. | Chris Fryatt
