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

Sunderland will look to continue their unbeaten home record in the Championship when they host Luton Town on Wednesday evening. The Black Cats left it late to salvage a point against Watford on Saturday, with Dennis Cirkin’s strike securing a 2-2 draw after an uncharacteristically drab display from Regis Le Bris’ side.

That result leaves five points adrift of the automatic promotion places with 15 matches left to play. For their part, Luton have struggled this season, and are currently 23rd in the table, two points adrift of safety. Sunderland ran out 2-1 winners when the two sides last met back in October.

Speaking after the final whistle of Saturday’s draw with Watford, head coach Le Bris said: "I'm a bit disappointed. We started well and we finished well... It wasn't really a surprise the challenge we faced today because we knew before the game that this team was very powerful, with many players with high pace. I think probably it suits perfectly our weaknesses, we are well organised but we are not as powerful and so in 1-v-1 we were dominated.

“In that kind of situation the best solution is to work together, but I don't think we did this in the first half. They had the ball and we faced that challenge. It's never easy to find one single reason but at the end of the game we spoke about the pressure, we could have been more efficient. But because they were able to play long and to then keep the ball in 1-v-1, it's never easy to apply a press. So the other side is to keep the ball [instead] and then the opponent can't play long to their strength. We didn’t do this.”
