Jeremie Frimpong and Conor Bradley, the two natural options at right full-back, are both sidelined themselves, while Dominik Szoboszlai, who has deputised in that position regularly this term, was suspended after his controversial red card against Manchester City. Joe Gomez was also returning from his own injury problem, although he is fit to play tonight after making appearance off the bench on Wearside.
To provide well-rounded coverage and a breadth of insight across various events, we rely on contributions from several staff writers, each bringing their own area of expertise to our publication.
