What channel is Preston v Sunderland Championship match on? Kick-off time, TV coverage and live stream details
Check out how to watch Preston v Sunderland in the Championship, including TV channel, radio coverage and kick-off time.
It all comes down to this. Sunderland have one shot to blast their way into the Championship play-offs on the final day of the campaign against Preston at Deepdale.
The Black Cats' fans couldn't have dreamed to be in this position at the start of the season after Alex Neil traded the Stadium of Light for Stoke following their promotion from League One.
However, Tony Mowbray's incredibly youthful, attacking outfit has earned plenty of plaudits throughout the campaign for coming this far, and without star striker Ross Stewart, whose 10 strikes prior to his season-ending injury in January feel like ancient history.
Anything less than a victory would see Sunderland finish valiantly close but outside of the play-off reckoning. If they do triumph over Preston, they would also require Coventry to be defeated by Middlesbrough or Millwall to drop points against Blackburn.
Preston should have gone into this game with something to play for but a four-game winless streak leaves them mathematically eliminated from the race. Rivals Blackburn are in the perilous position of requiring a Preston victory to help them out.
