Swansea City v Sunderland live: Kick-off time, team news and score updates

Swansea City return to Championship action this afternoon, with high-flying Sunderland the visitors to the Swansea.com Stadium.

The Swans are hoping to go five games unbeaten for the first time under Luke Williams, but face a stern test against a Black Cats side currently sitting fourth in the table.

The Wearsiders are, however, in the middle of a patchy run, having racked up just one win in their last eight games, although six of those have been draws, and they've only lost once in that run.

Williams will know his side will need to be at their best if they're to take all three points here, and a win would certainly give their fledging hopes of a top six push an almighty boost heading into a busy festive schedule.

Kick-off is 3pm
