This is why Sunderland v Fleetwood Town has been postponed


Fleetwood were set to travel to the Stadium of Light on Sunday, January 2, while The Cod Army have announced their trip to Wigan, scheduled to be played on Wednesday, December 29, will also be rearranged.
A Fleetwood statement read: “The Club has worked hard to ensure that it has been able to fulfil the fixture, however, taking into account the number of injuries and positive Covid-19 cases within the squad, the Club does not have a sufficient number of players available in order to fulfil the fixture.”
