Brobbey and Calvert-Lewin start after injury doubts for Sunderland-Leeds
Both teams make three changes, with Sunderland seeking to end four consecutive Premier League defeats.
Brian Brobbey and Dominic Calvert-Lewin were named in the starting lineups for Sunderland and Leeds United's Premier League meeting on October 25, despite injury concerns over both strikers. The match at the Stadium of Light was scheduled for 4.30pm.
Sunderland manager Regis Le Bris made three changes following the 2-0 defeat by Bournemouth. Brobbey replaced Timor Tuterov, who scored against Lech Poznan in the Europa League, while Nilson Angulo returned to the attack and Luke O'Nien replaced Omar Alderete.
Trai Hume moved to right-back, with Nordi Mukiele switching to center-back in place of the suspended Kevin Danso. Sunderland entered the fixture at the bottom of the table after four successive league losses; a victory would lift them out of last place.
Leeds manager Daniel Farke also changed three players following a 1-1 draw with Manchester United. Harry Wilson and Brenden Aaronson started, with Anton Stach and Noah Okafor limited to substitute roles because of foot and adductor injuries, respectively.
Jaka Bijol came into the Leeds defense alongside Tarik Muharemovic and James Justin. Farke told Sky Sports News that illness had kept Nico Elvedi out of the squad. A Leeds win would put them level on points with Chelsea, who were fifth.
