Sunderland boss Tony Mowbray has challenged his team to extend their winning run to four matches against "top team" Cardiff.
The Bluebirds go into the match having won two on the bounce, but the Black Cats, who defeated Blackburn Rovers 3-1 last night, have three successive victories to their name. Mowbray wants them to go one further, but thinks it'll be a tough ask against a Cardiff team currently riding the crest of a wave.
“The team are functioning alright”, Mowbray said. “I have just said how difficult it is to win three on the bounce in the Championship.”
“It is really, really difficult. I have just challenged them there about can we do four on the bounce on Sunday. Our biggest danger for that game will be ourselves, really.
“We have to turn up and make sure we are right at it, as if we are playing a top, top team and Cardiff, I think have won back to back games now as well so they will be on a high.
“It should be a great game, but a great opportunity for us to keep racking up the points.”
Cardiff take on Sunderland at 3pm on Sunday.
