- Ryan Bertrand is a doubt as he continues to struggle with a knee problem. Oriol Romeu was forced off against Manchester United, but should be fit to start.
- Florin Gardos misses out once more with a knee problem, though he is Claude Puel's only long-term absentee.
- Jeremy Pied has sustained a knee injury and is ruled out for the foreseeable future.
- David Moyes has a minor injury crisis in defence with John O'Shea and Lamine Kone joining Sebastian Larsson, Lee Cattermole and Jan Kirchhoff on the sidelines.
- Vito Mannone is sidelined for three months with an elbow injury, which could see Jordan Pickford start between the sticks, while Fabio Borini and Billy Jones are concerns.
- Steven Pienaar is in line to make his full debut for the Black Cats having started the 2-1 defeat to Middlesbrough on the bench.
