Sunderland can move level on points with the automatic promotion places if results goes their way during a hectic midweek Championship fixture schedule.
After claiming a hard-earned 2-1 home win against Stoke City on Saturday, the Black Cats are back at the Stadium of Light on Tuesday night when Bristol City become the latest club to try and take maximum points from their trip to Wearside.
