Excitement is building on Wearside ahead of Sunday's Checkatrade Trophy final.
Sunderland will be appearing at Wembley for the first time since 2014's League Cup final, while they'll be hoping to leave the national stadium with a victory for the first time since 1973's FA Cup final triumph over Leeds United.
Ahead of it, we asked the regular contributors of the Red and White Podcast Fan Reaction specials to preview the clash with League One promotion rivals Portsmouth.
In this special match preview episode, supporters discuss their excitement, their confidence of a win, whether a win is important or not?, Who should start? And much more.
Many have scoffed at the competition and rivals have mocked the Black Cats' involvement, but Jack Ross' side have handled the competition professionally and have rewarded supporters with a fantastic weekend trip to the capital for the cup final.
Hear the excitement of fans ahead of it in the podcast below.
