Sunderland v Ipswich Town: How to follow? Are there tickets available? Is there any team news? Everything you need to know ahead of League One clash at the Stadium of Light

The Black Cats are on a run of three straight defeats and have slipped outside the play-off places as a result of not playing their fixture last weekend.
