Danny Ballard is a doubt for Sunderland's Gameweek 6 game, with Mukiele set to partner Danso as Reinildo returns from suspension.

[..] #SAFC Ballard spent more than a month on the sidelines earlier this year after suffering a hamstring strain vs Brighton before ankle surgery in the summer. He is the only Black Cats defender to play every PL minute in 2026-27... Ballard has the most clearances (31) 6.2 per-90 plus 49 CBIT actions. If he does miss out in GW6, then Mukiele is likely to partner Kevin Danso centrally, with Reinildo, who returns after suspension coming in at full-back.
