The Black Cats faithful have unsurprisingly travelled in numbers so far this season, and the clash at the Ricoh Arena could see Sunderland's biggest away following of the season.

Sunderland were initially given 1,903 tickets but now a further 2,000 has been passed on to the Wearside club, which Donald hopes will turn the away into a 'sea of red and white'.
