U21s to visit Sunderland for Premier League 2 Play-Off quarter-final

West Ham United U21s will travel to Sunderland in the Premier League 2 Play-Off quarter-finals on Monday 13 May.

The fixture will be played at Eppleton Colliery Welfare Ground in Hetton-le-Hole, five miles south west of Sunderland city centre. Kick-off will be at 7pm. 

Having reached the last 16 with just four defeats from 20 games to finish second in the regular season table, Steve Potts' young Hammers progressed to the last eight with a 4-1 win over Blackburn Rovers last Friday evening.  

Sunderland, meanwhile, finished seventh in the table and beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 4-1 at Eppleton Colliery Welfare Ground on Bank Holiday Monday to set up the tie with the Irons.

West Ham and Sunderland met in the second match of the regular season at Rush Green Stadium back in August 2023, when goals from Callum Marshall and Luizão secured a dominant 2-0 victory for the hosts.

A full match preview, including ticket details, will follow in due course.
