Sunderland kick off the post-Tony Mowbray era by welcoming West Bromwich Albion to the Stadium of Light on Saturday lunchtime.

Mowbray led the Black Cats to a sixth-place finish in the Championship last season, but a three-game winless run that has seen the team slip out of the play-off spots prompted club chiefs to produce his P45 earlier this week.

Sunderland have handed first-team coach Mike Dodds the managerial reins on a caretaker basis until a permanent successor is appointed, and he is handed a tricky opening fixture in the dugout.

West Brom sit five points and four places ahead of Sunderland in fifth place in the Championship table, although they make the trip north without a number of key players, including Jed Wallace and Okay Yokuşlu.

The Baggies are hoping to bounce back from a heartbreaking defeat to Leicester City last weekend.

Josh Maja thought he had rescued late point before Harry Winks claimed all three points for the league leaders with a goal in the 94th minute.
