Team News

Bristol City
Sunderland
  • Liam Manning could rotate in the wide positions this weekend, handing a start to George Tanner on the left.
  • No further changes are expected from the Robins on Good Friday.
  • Scott Twine was deemed fit enough to feature against QPR, meaning Bristol City have just two injuries to contend with this weekend.
  • Jobe Bellingham has missed the last two league fixtures for Sunderland, but Regis Le Bris has confirmed that he will be ready to return on Good Friday.
  • Enzo Le Fee should also be fit enough to start after the midfielder was forced to feature from the bench over the past few weeks due to fitness concerns.
  • This game will come too soon for Dennis Cirkin, but the left-back has a chance of returning to action next week.

Prediction

  • Bristol City responded well after falling behind early to QPR last weekend but couldn't find a winner as the two sides played out a 1-1 draw at Loftus Road. The Robins have taken seven points from their last three Championship fixtures and head into gameweek 43 with a four-point cushion to seventh-placed West Brom.
  • Sunderland's uninspiring end to the regular season continued in gameweek 42 as the Black Cats were beaten 1-0 at home by a mid-table Swansea side. After a strong campaign under Regis Le Bris, the Black Cats have won just four of their last 10 league fixtures, swiping away momentum before the playoffs.
