The Championship pair face off in Yorkshire this week as Sunderland look to build on their 1-1 draw away to Luton Town in the second tier last weekend.

After a nervy start the Black Cats held their own in an even first half, but fell behind on the stroke of half-time. Carlton Morris opened the scoring when he converted Alfie Doughty’s low cross, yet Sunderland responded after the break.
