Phil Parkinson has made two changes for tonight’s game against Bristol Rovers (KO 7.45pm).
On loan from Bristol City, Antoine Semenyo lines against Rovers at the Memorial Stadium, while fellow January recruit Josh Scowen is also named in the starting XI.
George Dobson and Lynden Gooch both drop to the bench, with Will Grigg also available in reserve.
Kyle Lafferty retains his place after scoring a brace against Gillingham on Saturday, but after missing the clash with Steve Evans’ side, fit-again Charlie Wyke returns to the squad.
Max Power once again captains the Lads.
Sunderland AFC: J McLaughlin, Willis, Ozturk, Power, Maguire, Lafferty, Flanagan, O’Nien, Scowen, Hume, Semenyo.
Substitutes: Wyke, Gooch, Burge, Dobson, Grigg, C McLaughlin, Lynch.
