Despite being tipped by many to struggle, the Black Cats have been one of the form teams so far this season with the likes of Granit Xhaka catching the headlines following a flurry of summer arrivals.

At home they are a dominant force having drawn 1-1 with Villa despite being down to 10 men and then beating West Ham and Brentford.

But they will be looking to bounce back from a recent defeat to Man U at Old Trafford, backed by a boisterous crowd.

Previewing today’s clash, Toti said: “It’s definitely a different challenge.

“It will be the first time I've faced them and you never know what to expect, because there’s players that you've never played against, and playing in a new stadium.
