ON - Willian

OFF - Wilson

ON - Mitrovic

OFF - Vinicius

Kurzawa booked for a foul on Hume

Kurzawa's low ball into the box finds Cairney, he twists and turns to get away from first Michut and then Ballard before firing his shot into the bottom left-hand corner

Roberts charges forward and hits a left-foot shot from the edge of the box which goes just wide of the left-hand post

Amad's snap shot is parried by Rodak, who then manages to foil Clarke as he tries to apply the finish

Fulham clear a Sunderland corner and attack on the break, Pereira feeds Wilson who races into the box but can't beat Patterson, who turns the ball behind for a corner

Amad in the area on the right, forces Rodak to save with his feet at his near post with the ball going behind for a corner

Wilson cuts inside onto his left foot on the edge of the box and hits a shot which Patterson does well to push away diving high to his right

Should be 2-0. Roberts glides across the edge of the box and plays the ball into the path of Ba at the far post, but his low shot goes just wide of the left-hand post

Sunderland kick off the second half, attacking the end housing the travelling fans

ON - Huggins

OFF - Alese

Patterson 7

Hume 6

Ballard 8

Batth 7

Alese 7

Neil 7

Michut 8

Roberts 7

Amad 7

Clarke 7

Stewart 7 (Ba 20, 6)

An excellent first half from Sunderland, with Clarke's early goal putting them in the driving seat.

Amad has had a couple of opportunities to extend their lead but has been unable to take them.

Fulham have had chances too, with Tosin heading a good opportunity over the bar while it needed a brilliant block from Ballard and then the toe of Patterson to keep out a volley from Pereira.

The big news, though, has been the loss of Ross Stewart to injury. He was stretchered off midway through the first half with what looked like an ankle problem. Massive blow if he is out for any length of time.

Wilson booked for a foul on Michut in the build-up to that Amad chance

Chance for Amad right on the stroke of half-time when he is played through by Michut, but he just can't get a clean shot away and it deflects off a defender for a corner

Four minutes to be played

Alese booked for a foul on Wilson

Solomon crosses from the byline on the left, it drops for the unmarked Pereira to hit on the volley but Ballard makes an incredible block on the line and the ball then ricochets off Patterson and stays out

Roberts beats Kurzawa on the right, cuts the ball back for Amad but he sends his low shot narrowly wide of the right-hand post

Fulham win a corner on the right, it's swung into the box and Kurzawa flicks it on but Vinicius can't make contact at the far post

Wilson fires a shot wide of the left-hand post from the edge of the box

Fulham appeal for a penalty as Pereira goes down in the box under a challenge from Ba, but the ref isn't convinced

Low effort from Amad from the edge of the box, easy save for Rodak

This is not good.

ON - Ba

OFF - Stewart

Stewart departs on a stretcher

Stewart tussles for the ball with Diop and immediately pulls up, sinks to the ground and waves to the bench for attention. Looks painful. He's not going to carry on

Corner to Fulham on the left, it's played out to Pereira on the left corner of the box and his cross is met by Tosin with a downward header, but the ball bounces up and over the bar

What a start to the game - Sunderland fans in full cry!
