What Sunderland need at Morecambe to finish in the League One play-offs - with Sheffield Wednesday, Plymouth and Wycombe still in contention
Sunderland will finish in the League One play-off places if they beat Morecambe on the final day of the season.
Alex Neil’s side salvaged a point during a 1-1 draw with Rotherham at the Stadium of Light, moving the Black Cats onto 81 points.
Sunderland have dropped a place in the table to fifth, though, after Sheffield Wednesday came from behind to win 3-2 at Fleetwood.
If the Black Cats fail to win at The Mazuma Stadium on Saturday they could drop out of the top six if Wycombe and Plymouth both better their result – with both sides on 80 points.
