How can I watch Hull City's clash with Sunderland? Is there a live stream? What are the odds?

Former Sunderland player George Honeyman - now of Hull City - in action during the Sky Bet League One match against Northampton Town.

Grant McCann’s Hull City have had a decent start to their season, with the Tigers sitting second in League One, four points off leaders Lincoln City with two games in hand.

Last time out, Hull City defeated Charlton 2-0 at the Kcom Stadium with Hakeeb Adelakun and Greg Docherty finding the net for the home side.

Sunderland, however, are facing a backlog of fixtures and find themselves 11th in the third tier and eight points adrift of their Saturday opponents.

Lee Johnson’s men are looking to bounce back from a Covid-19 enforced lay-off, which was followed by a disappointing goalless draw away to Northampton Town at the beginning of January.

Is there any early team news ahead of the clash?

But McCann will be without three key players when Hull City travel to the Stadium of Light on Saturday night, including centre-back Jordy de Wijs and winger Martin Samuelsen for the game and forward Keane Lewis-Potter.

Black Cats head coach Johnson says the picture at the club has improved considerably after 14 players and some staff tested positive for the virus over the festive period.

Most have recovered well, and all players are now out of their period of isolation.

However, Will Grigg will miss the clash following a knee injury which could see the striker sidelined for nine months.
