What you need to know
Sunderland recently appointed Régis Le Bris as their new manager, who hopes to write a new chapter in Sunderland's history with dedication and hard work. The goal for this season: to fight for the play-off places. That goal could well become a reality with the retention of 18-year-old star player Jobe Bellingham (younger brother of Real Madrid star Jude), 17-year-old Chriss Rigg and striker Eliezer Mayenda.
In Chris Bedia and Gustavo Puerta, on loan from Union Berlin and Bayer Leverkusen respectively, and Marvin Mehlem, bought from Darmstadt, German fans will see familiar faces from the Bundesliga.
The Tigers will be looking to repeat their success from last season when they won 1-0 at the Stadium of Light.
