Match Facts
Sunderland have won each of their last two league games against Cardiff City and could win three in succession for the first time since October 1922.
Cardiff City have won each of their last three away league games against Sunderland, as many victories as across their prior 15 matches combined against the Black Cats (D6 L6).
After going unbeaten in their first 16 home league games this season, Sunderland lost 1-0 to Hull last time out at the Stadium of Light. They last suffered consecutive home defeats in their final two home games of last season.
Cardiff have won just one of their last 19 away Championship matches (D9 L9) and have picked up just three points in five games (D3 L2) since their last away win on 29 December against Watford.
Jobe Bellingham made his 100th Championship appearance in Sunderland’s 2-1 win over Sheffield Wednesday, becoming the second teenager to play 100+ games since the 2004 rebrand, along with Will Hughes (121). He’s also the first player born after the first Championship games on 7 August 2004 to make 100 Championship appearances.
