Sunderland manager Regis Le Bris has made just one change to his starting line-up from the goalless draw at Brighton.
Centre-back Dan Ballard is out with an injury, so Dennis Cirkin make his first league start of the season in his place.

Subs: Patterson, Neil, Mayenda, Mundle, Isidor, Hjelde, Harrison Jones, Jenson Oliver Jones, Tutierov.
Leeds boss Daniel Farke has named the same 11 that posted a superb 4-1 win against Crystal Palace last week.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin leads the line hoping to score for the sixth game running while Lukas Nmecha makes the bench after returning from an injury.
Leeds XI: Perii, Bogle, Gudmundsson, Ampadu, Struijk, Rodon, Calvert-Lewin, Aaronson, Bijol, Stach, Okafor.
Subs: Darlow, Piroe, Nmecha, Harrison, Tanaka, Bornauw, Justin, Gnonto, Gruev.
