Cardiff City, fresh from a loss to third placed Burnley, will make the trip up to the Stadium of Light on Saturday (15:00 GMT) to take on fourth placed Sunderland. The Bluebirds are five points clear of the relegation zone but only hover one place above Luton Town in 22nd.
Sunderland have won each of their last two league games against Cardiff City and could win three in succession for the first time since October 1922. Cardiff City have won each of their last three away league games against Sunderland, as many victories as across their prior 15 matches combined against the Black Cats (D6 L6).
