Is Sunderland vs Burton Albion on TV, what time is kick-off and who is in the teams?

Sunderland welcome Burton Albion to the Stadium of Light on Tuesday evening looking to maintain their push for promotion to the Championship.

The Black Cats moved level on points with second placed Barnsley on Saturday, as goals from Charlie Wyke and George Honeyman secured a vital 2-1 win at Rochdale.

Jack Ross' side have two games in hand over the Tykes, the first of which being the visit of the Brewers on Tuesday.

If Sunderland avoid defeat, they will move into the automatic promotion places but they welcome a Burton side who are in decent form.

Nigel Clough's men have won three games in a row and beat the Black Cats' promotion rivals Barnsley on Saturday.

What time does Sunderland vs Burton Albion kick off?

The action gets under way at 7.45pm. It is one of three League One games taking place on Tuesday evening.

What are the injury concerns? Who is in the teams?

Sunderland will be without Reece James, Duncan Watmore and Chris Maguire through injury. Donald Love returned from injury with the under-23s on Sunday but will unlikely be in the squad on Tuesday night.

Sunderland likely XI: McLaughlin; O'Nien, Flanagan, Baldwin, Hume; Gooch, McGeouch, Power, Morgan; Wyke, Grigg

Burton likely XI: Collins; Brayford, McFadzean, Burton, Daniel; Allen; Fraser, Quinn; Harness; Boyce, Akins

Oldham last officiated Sunderland back in February during the 1-1 draw with Oxford.
