Sunderland and Hull City Battle for Play-off Spots in Championship Clash

Sunderland and Hull City are set to clash in a crucial Championship match as both teams look to secure a spot in the play-offs. The game, which will take place at the Stadium of Light, promises an exciting fight for points.

Sunderland, managed by Michael Beale, will be aiming to bounce back from a disappointing 2-1 loss against Ipswich Town last weekend. They will rely on the talents of Jobe Bellingham in midfield, who previously played as a forward but is expected to return to his natural position.

Nazarii Rusyn is likely to lead the attack for Sunderland in a 4-2-3-1 formation. However, they will miss the services of Patrick Roberts and Bradley Dack due to injuries.

Hull City, led by Liam Rosenior, also suffered a setback in their previous league match, losing 2-1 to Norwich City. Their FA Cup campaign ended with a 2-1 defeat against Birmingham City. With Scott Twine joining Bristol City and Aaron Connolly out due to concussion protocols, the team had to make a few changes.

Jason Lokilo is expected to play on the left side, filling in for the departed Twine. Billy Sharp will operate as the lone striker for Hull City. Unfortunately, Liam Delap will not be available due to a knee injury.

Both teams will be determined to secure a victory and move closer to the play-off spots. The match promises to be a thrilling contest between two competitive sides.

In their last five meetings, Sunderland have registered two wins, while Hull City have managed one victory. Two matches ended in draws, including an exciting 4-4 result in their most recent encounter.
