After winning AFCON last weekend, El Hadji Malick Diouf is back on the bench for the home side, whilst Taty Castellanos starts up front.

For the Black Cats, they also welcome back their Senegalese international Habib Diarra, but, like his compatriot, he is only fit enough for the bench after his efforts in Morocco.

11:00 CET - Good morning and welcome to a fascinating weekend of football across Europe. 

There are important games in the context of the season wherever you look today. The action gets underway from 13:30 CET as relegation-battling West Ham host high-flying Sunderland in a crucial game for under-pressure manager Nuno Espirito Santo.

Elsewhere in the Premier League today, another under-fire manager, Thomas Frank, leads his team to Turf Moor as Burnley host Spurs. Also at 16:00 CET, Manchester City have the chance to put pressure on league leaders Arsenal (who host Man United tomorrow) when they host bottom-of-the-table Wolves

Over to Ligue 1 and the big game of the day comes from the evening as third-placed Marseille host second-placed Lens. Victory for the visitors will see them return to the league's summit and above holders PSG so there is plenty on the line. 

In Germany today, runaway Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich host Augsburg from 15:30 CET in what Vincent Kompany will be hoping is a routine win on the road to what feels like an inevitable title. 

And finally, in LaLiga, it is the last match of the day which headlines alongside Ligue 1 as shock title contenders Villarreal host second-placed Real Madrid in what is set to be a box-office clash. After Real Madrid's emphatic win in the Champions League midweek, it will be fascinating if Alvaro Arbeloa can get the same tune out of his side for a vital game in LaLiga.
