Team news for Coventry match

Sunderland have confirmed this morning that both Kevin Kyle and Julio Arca are doubful for tomorrow's match, but there's no detail about whether or not the pair will travel to Coventry with the rest of the squad today.

Steve Caldwell is set for his red 'n' white debut at the Jaguar Stadium after scoring in the pre-season friendlies, and youngsters Stephen Elliott and the highly-rated Liam Lawrence are both set to feature at some point in the match.

Meanwhile Peter Reid has virtually a full Sky Blues' squad to pick from, with only Craig Pead and Eric Deloumeaux unavailable through injury.
