The hosts are 13 points clear at the top of the Championship standings. They just require nine points from as many matches to secure a return to the top flight but Vincent Kompany must be careful to not allow any form of complacency to creep into his side.
Meanwhile, Sunderland are in the 11th spot with 53 points from 38 matches. They are seven points adrift of a playoff spot and must pull up their socks at the business end of the campaign to squeeze into the top six. Since a draw to Bristol City at home in February they have struggled to trouble their opponents, picking up just five points from seven matches.
