West Bromwich Albion will be hoping to have Steven Reid and Billy Jones available for their trip to the Stadium of Light tomorrow evening.
The defensive duo both missed Sunday's defeat to Arsenal, but Reid, who has been hampered with a groin injury, returned to training today, while Jones's hamstring injury will be assessed ahead of the match against Sunderland.
However, manager Pepe Mel has insisted that Jones will not be risked if his fitness is in doubt.
A draw or win for the Baggies will ensure that they avoid relegation this season.
