Sunderland will be hoping to have a few of their injured players back for the League One run-in which begins with the visit of Gillingham on Saturday. Seven games remain for Alex Neil’s side and there is not much room for error given the Black Cats’ position in the table.
They are currently two points outside the top six following their six-game unbeaten run. Neil will be hoping that, as he looks to guide his side into the play-off places, he will have a few more players available than he has had in recent weeks.
We have taken a look at each of the players who have been injured in recent weeks and when they might return to the Sunderland matchday squad.
