Sunderland 1-0 Leeds United highlights: Black Cats defeat Whites on Wearside

Leeds' visit to Wearside tonight is their first since a 2-0 win over Sunderland in August 2017. Since then, the two sides have been on vastly different trajectories, with the north-east club dropping into League One at the same time Leeds sparred with the Premier League's big-hitters.

This season, the pair are promotion hopefuls with United having been relegated from the top flight looking to bounce straight back, while Sunderland's hopes of a Premier League return were dashed by Luton Town in the play-offs last term.

Daniel Farke was especially pleased with his team's performance at Blackburn Rovers over the weekend but may be forced into changes this evening after Sam Byram was withdrawn midway through the second half with a hamstring injury in that fixture. The quick turnaround also means the team have had minimal time on the training pitch since Saturday lunchtime's 2-0 victory.

Kick-off this evening is at 8pm. Team news arriving from 7 o'clock at the Stadium of Light. All the build-up, line-ups, and live match updates here throughout the night.
