‘Keep the faith’ is a motto synonymous with following The Lads, and one man from outside the red and white bubble that has never given up on Sunderland’s promotion chances is EFL pundit Gab Sutton — so we grabbed him for a chat ahead of this weekend’s Championship Playoff Final to get his insight on what might happen at Wembley!

On today’s agenda:

• Gab famously tipped Sunderland to win the league in pre-season when others simply scoffed at him — what made him think that we were capable of glory?
• What does Gab think of Sheffield United’s season, and the fact they dropped out of the top two?
• How much do the two games earlier in the season matter when it comes to preparing for this game?
• Chris Wilder v Régis Le Bris — who has the tactical and mental edge?
• We pick Gab’s brains on how he thinks each side will approach the occasion;
• What does Gab think will happen in the game — does he think Sunderland will be promoted?!
