Sunderland continue their battle for a Championship play-off place this weekend as Watford travel to Wearside.

Following their great comeback on Sunday after beating West Brom 2-1, the Black Cats will look to continue their recent good form on Saturday. Dennis Cirkin was the man of the hour as the left-back popped up for two moments of excellence as he led Sunderland to victory.

Dan Ballard may be close to a return to the side as Tony Mowbray confirmed he will be back in training, but it will be a ‘daily assessment’. However, Sunderland learned the extent of Danny Batth’s injury and the defender will remain out until June after suffering a knee injury against Huddersfield.
