This game comes just four days after our home game against West Brom, also moved for Sky coverage, on the Monday and this takes the number of our games shown live this season to four.
It will be the first time the two clubs have met in a live televised game on Wearside but we all know just a couple of years ago the home game was shown live, a game that saw current captain Steven Caldwell feature for the visitors and Ade Akinbiyi make something of a fleeting appearance on his debut.
The game will kick off at 7:45 p.m.
