"As things stand we expect him to train tomorrow with the group.
"It was just an impact injury at the time, quite a sore one but it's heeled well since Tuesday."
Sunderland are also expected to welcome back Lee Cattermole and Reece James against Wanderers after the pair missed the Bristol Rovers game with minor knocks.

"Alim had a slight groin problem and didn’t travel with us to Bristol. It’s probably unlikely that he’ll travel again, but there’s nothing major to report," added Ross.
