Chris Coleman has made two changes from the team that lost against Ipswich Town last weekend.
Jake Clarke-Salter returns from the treatment room to replace Adam Matthews in defence.
The 20-year-old will slot in alongside John O’Shea and Ty Browning in a back three while Billy Jones moves across to right-back, replacing Matthews who misses out through injury.
George Honeyman has been recalled to the starting XI in place of Ethan Robson, who drops to the bench.
The Prudhoe-born midfielder will sit just in front of Lee Cattermole and Ovie Ejaria while Ashley Fletcher and Joel Asoro lead the line for Sunderland.
Sunderland: Camp, Jones, O’Shea, Clarke-Salter, Browning, Oviedo, Cattermole, Ejaria, Honeyman, Fletcher, Asoro
Subs: Steele, McGeady, Love, Gooch, Maja, Robson, LuaLua
