Wickham starts for Sunderland

England youth international Connor Wickham has been handed a place in Sunderland's starting lineup for this evening's FA Cup replay against Bolton Wanderers.

He has come in for leading goalscorer Steven Fletcher, who has been rested for the tie.

Sebastian Larsson has also dropped out, meaning that David Vaughan and Jack Colback will form a partnership in the centre of midfield.

Meanwhile, Marvin Sordell will feature as a lone frontman for visiting Bolton, who have also handed a start to Arsenal loanee Benik Afobe.

Sunderland: Mignolet; Gardner, Bardsley, Kilgallon, Bramble; Colback, Vaughan, Johnson, McClean; Sessegnon, Wickham

Bolton: Lonergan; Mears, Alonso, Knight, Ricketts; Vela, Spearing, Pratley, Afobe, Eagles; Sordell
