Sunderland head coach Régis Le Bris has confirmed that Alan Browne will be in the starting lineup for Wednesday’s match against Preston North End at Deepdale. Browne, who played the full 90 minutes in Sunderland’s last game against QPR, steps in as 17-year-old Chris Rigg is sidelined due to a chest issue. Le Bris expressed confidence in Browne’s ability to perform against his former club, emphasizing his experience and leadership qualities.

Discussing the upcoming challenge, Le Bris highlighted the competitiveness of the Championship, stating that even teams at the bottom of the table pose threats. He noted that Preston North End will not be passive, showcasing their intensity and effective man-for-man marking. Le Bris stressed the need for Sunderland to learn from past matches and improve on specific aspects of their game, such as goal-kick restarts and building play under pressure.

Regarding his tactical approach, Le Bris dismissed the possibility of switching to a five-at-the-back formation, preferring to stick with the solid structure they’ve built. He believes in maintaining consistency while being adaptable when necessary, focusing on further developing the team’s references and making improvements as the season progresses.

Regis Le Bris remains uncertain about how the recent signing of Aaron Connolly will impact Nazariy Rusyn’s future at Sunderland but believes the Ukrainian forward can still contribute in the months ahead. With Ahmed Abdullahi out injured, Le Bris emphasized the need for three strikers in his squad, leading to the move for free agent Connolly. However, once Connolly is fit after the October international break, Rusyn may find himself lower in the pecking order. Despite limited game time so far this season, Le Bris highlighted the importance of healthy competition, noting that the added depth will push all three players to perform at their best.
