"Sunderland are aiming to stay above Newcastle when the neighbours meet in the Premier League on Sunday. The Black Cats start the day 10th in the table and remain unbeaten at home in this season's top flight. Newcastle are unbeaten in four matches in all competitions, including a 2-2 draw at Leverkusen in the Champions League on Wednesday. 101GreatGoals.com has full team news from Sunderland vs Newcastle in the Premier League, as well as details on how to watch the action live."
"Sunderland's Reinildo Mandava returns following a groin issue, but fellow left-back Dennis Cirkin is not involved despite progressing in his return from injury. Chemsdine Talbi and Brian Brobbey also come in, replacing Lutsharel Geertruida, Wilson Isidor and Luke O'Nien, who is serving the first match of a three-game suspension for being dismissed in the 3-0 defeat at Manchester City last Saturday. Habib Diarra will return to full training next week after a groin injury but could feature for Senegal at the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), which starts on December 21."
""He will need probably one or two weeks to be at his best after a good rehab programme and after that it depends on AFCON," assessed Le Bris. "We need to build his fitness level and after that, he will be ready. "The decision is with the national team. If they want to select the player, they can. It's not our decision.""
