Championship leaders Sunderland will be looking to consolidate their place at the top of the table when they welcome promotion rivals Leeds United to the Stadium of Light on Friday.

The Black Cats bounced back from last Saturday's defeat at Watford by beating Derby County 2-0 on Tuesday evening to leapfrog West Bromwich Albion and take their spot at the summit.

The Stadium of Light is proving to be a fortress for Régis Le Bris's team as they have won all four of their games on home soil without conceding a goal in the 2024/25 campaign.

Leeds head to Wearside off the back of a 1-1 draw at Norwich City in midweek as Largie Ramazani's second-half goal cancelled out Canaries forward Josh Sargent's early penalty to take their unbeaten streak to three games.

Daniel Farke's side are proving to be good travellers as they have avoided defeat in their four away matches this term, so a tight affair between two of the Championship's top teams could be on the cards.
