SUNDERLAND boss Regis Le Bris has named an unchanged starting line-up for this afternoon's home game with Hull City.

While the Black Cats boss confirmed that Romaine Mundle is now fully fit in his pre-match press conference, he has opted to keep the winger on the bench at the Stadium of Light.

That means Enzo Le Fee will continue in the left-sided role he has filled since moving from Roma, with Patrick Roberts continuing on the opposite flank.

Dan Ballard has once again got the nod to start alongside Luke O'Nien at centre-half, with Chris Mepham remaining amongst the substitutes.

Sunderland start the game eight points adrift of the automatic-promotion positions, and six points behind third-placed Burnley, who beat Sheffield Wednesday last night.


SUNDERLAND (4-2-3-1):  Patterson; Hume, Ballard, O'Nien, Cirkin; Neil, Bellingham; Roberts, Rigg, Le Fee; Isidor.

Subs: Moore, Browne, Mayenda, Mundle, Samed, Mepham, Aleksic, Hjelde, Poveda.
