Squad sheets: Sunderland v Newcastle United

Two clubs, two managers, two very different outlooks. "I don't look forward to any games now, to be honest. It's hard," says Steve Bruce. "I have a great job, the best in the world – until Saturday afternoon comes along." Alan Pardew disagrees. "I quite enjoy the games," he counters. "It's the Monday to Friday bit, the putting out of fires, I don't like. It's a genuine relief to be beside the pitch." On it, expect to see Lee Cattermole and Joey Barton wind each other up and opposing strikers Asamoah Gyan and Shola Ameobi vie for hero status.
