Jack Ross reveals whether Sunderland duo Dylan McGeouch and Denver Hume will face Portsmouth
The duo were both missing from the team that beat Accrington Stanley 3-1 on Tuesday night in the Carabao Cup at the Wham Stadium.
Hume was missing with a groin problem but Ross has confirmed he could return to the squad against Portsmouth on Saturday, providing he is able to return to training later in the week.
