What channel is Sunderland v Sheffield Wednesday Championship match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Check out how to watch Sunderland v Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship, including TV channel, radio coverage and kick-off time.
The Stadium of Light plays host to two of the most impressive sides in the opening round of Championship action this weekend.
Sunderland enjoyed a dream start to life under new French boss Régis Le Bris, as Luke O'Nien and Jack Clarke found the back of the net in a 2-0 win at Cardiff City last Saturday.
Sheffield Wednesday then stuck four goals without reply past Wayne Rooney's Plymouth Argyle at Hillsborough the following day to climb to the top of the fledgling Championship standings.
The Owls took their winning form into the Carabao Cup as forward Charlie McNeill, an unused substitute against Plymouth, made the most of his chance in Danny Röhl's starting XI by bagging both goals in a 2-1 success at Hull City.
While Röhl has been given a selection dilemma ahead of the trip to Wearside, Sunderland opposite number Le Bris will need little persuasion to restore his big hitters after seeing his side, boasting 11 changes, fall to a 2-0 defeat to managerless Preston North End in the cup.
