Sunderland face Stoke City for the third time in just over a month in the third round of the FA Cup on Saturday afternoon.
But Stoke will be managed by their third different boss, with Mark Robins taking over. Both bosses have a number of injury and selection issues to consider. Here’s all the team news as we currently have it...
1. Ian Poveda - doubt
Made a successful return to action on Wednesday night by playing 45 minutes and scoring in the U21s. Sunderland have to decide whether he is included in the squad here or gets some more minutes with the U21s. | Harry Murphy/Getty Images Photo: Harry Murphy/Getty Images
