What channel is Sunderland v Coventry Championship play-off on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Check out how to watch Sunderland v Coventry in the Championship play-offs, including TV channel, radio coverage and kick-off time.
The Stadium of Light will be bouncing on Tuesday night as Sunderland take a narrow lead into the home leg of their Championship play-off semi-final against Coventry City.
The Black Cats finished the 2024/25 campaign on a run of five straight defeats but found form when it mattered to claim a 2-1 victory away at the CBS Arena on Friday night.
Régis Le Bris's side were forced to do a lot of defending by their hosts and struck twice on the break, first through Wilson Isidor and then Eliezer Mayenda, either side of Jack Rudoni's initial equaliser.
All is certainly not lost for the Sky Blues, who many have tipped to progress despite finishing a place and seven points below Sunderland in the Championship table.
Frank Lampard has had a transformative impact since taking charge at Coventry in November, and the former England midfielder has shown he is capable of upsetting the odds in the play-offs before – having overturned a first-leg advantage away at Leeds United to reach the 2018/19 final with Derby County.
Wembley, a shot at promotion to the Premier League, and a potential place in club legend await whichever side can do the business on Tuesday.
