Sunderland's back in the EFL Championship after earning promotion via the playoff last season.
The Black Cats welcome Coventry City to the Stadium of Light on Matchday 1 of the 2022-23 campaign, and Sunderland boss Alex Neil will hope to turn the home-field advantage into a win on opening day.
Meanwhile, Coventry will play in the division for the third straight season. The Sky Blues are hoping to climb out of the midtable after a 12th place finish in 21-22, and a victory over the Championship newcomers would be a step in the right direction for Mark Robins' men.
