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

Sunderland will be hoping to seal a place at Wembley for the Championship play-off final when they host Coventry City in the second leg of their semi-final showdown on Tuesday evening.

The Black Cats take a narrow one-goal lead into the clash at the Stadium of Light having beaten Frank Lampard’s side 2-1 on Friday night, with goals from Wilson Isidor and Eliezer Mayenda proving to be enough to hand their side an advantage.

Reflecting on his team’s display in the Midlands, Sunderland head coach Regis Le Bris said: “We did really well this season and of course, the last period was a little bit different but it was our plan to refresh our squad to create the condition to have the full squad available. You saw how important it was today, the energy and the commitment was there. You need this in play-off football...

“It's tough to create this mindset to defend the box to be fair but it's a really strong quality of this team. I was surprised early in the season to see this behaviour because they want to defend their box, their goalkeeper and their goal. They stick together all the time. Even when it's tough you can feel this energy. In this period it's more about mindset than tactics and technical qualities. For sure, it helps. The mindset is so important.

"We [have been] talking a lot about complacency, consistency, discipline, because young players before making mistakes can just be driven by the dynamic of the game, the score. Now the game is finished so I was really impressed again today. I was impressed by the level of maturity today. It was tough, it wasn't an easy game but they stayed connected and grounded in out principles. This was the main principle of our success today."
