The Coventry City & Sunderland managers M. Robins and P. Parkinson are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the League One league table.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a League One game only zero days ago. That game was also an away game, at Coventry City. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
