Despite Sunderland starting the season with 9 wins from their first 12 games to put them on top of the table, a run of 5 draws and 1 loss from their next 6 games dropped the Black Cats into 4th place where they would remain for the rest of the season to earn a place in the playoffs, despite losing their last 5 games of the season. Sunderland would go on to make the play-off final after beating Coventry City 3–2 on aggregate in the semi finals. They would go on to beat Sheffield United 2–1 in the play-off final to win promotion to the Premier League, marking the Black Cats return to the top-flight for the first time since 2017.
