Sunderland's trip to Plymouth Argyle on Easter Monday televised

Sunderland's trip to Plymouth Argyle on Easter Monday has been selected for live broadcast by Sky Sports. Fortunately for supporters, kick-off will remain at 3pm ahead of a long trip to the south coast.

Fans are often the victims when it comes to games being selected for TV, but they needn't worry about the trip to Home Park. The Black Cats know a win against their promotion rivals would do wonders for their play-off push.

Alex Neil's side currently occupy the final play-off berth, but Sheffield Wednesday have a game in hand on the Wearsiders. Sunderland's next game is Gillingham at the Stadium of Light before a trip to Oxford United on April 9 and are due to host Shrewsbury Town on Wearside on Good Friday.

The Black Cats know that securing a play-off berth is in their own hands, but are due to face three of the teams above them in their final seven League One fixtures. Depending on results between now and Easter Monday, Sunderland could find themselves above Argyle.
