Kieran Richardson looks set to miss Sunderland's game with Wigan on Saturday after suffering a setback in his comeback from a hamstring injury.Richardson tried to return in the 3-0 defeat at Liverpool on Saturday but was taken off after seven minutes at Anfield.

Black Cats manager Roy Keane confirmed it was the same injury which had kept Richardson out of games against Tottenham and Birmingham.

Keane told the club's official website: "It's the same injury that he had before. He had trained well all week but match situations are different, it's disappointing."
