Can I stream Sunderland vs Bradford City online?

Sunderland’s clash with Bradford City will be streamed by the club in the United Kingdom.

The EFL have confirmed that they will return to their pre-COVID-19 position on streaming games this season.

That means Sunderland fans in the UK will not be able to stream games that take place between 2:45 and 5:15 on a Saturday afternoon.

Only fans overseas will be able to stream those games, provided that they have not been selected for international television broadcast in a territory that has an overseas broadcast partner.

However, the EFL have also confirmed that clubs will be able to offer a streaming service to UK supporters for any games that take place outside of that Saturday window.

That means that all midweek games not selected for TV can be streamed, as well as matches moved from their Saturday slot for non-TV purposes.

Is there any team news ahead of Sunderland vs Bradford City?

Arbenit Xhemajli was not involved last Saturday as he continues his comeback from a major knee injury, though he could play some part when the Black Cats welcome Bradford City for their final Papa John's Trophy group game on Tuesday night.

Lee Johnson has seen his options at full-back reduced again after confirmation that Denver Hume has suffered a serious ankle injury.

Scans have confirmed that he could be out for up to two months, which means that like Niall Huggins he is unlikely to play a significant part until the turn of the year.

Niall Huggins will be out until the New Year with Jordan Willis still sidelined.
