Huddersfield Town are set to visit Sunderland in the second round of the Carabao Cup.
The Terriers pulled off an upset in the first round, advancing at the expense of newly-relegated Championship outfit Leicester City.

Fans will have to wait for the announcement of the starting XIs but Grant has indicated there will be changes to his Huddersfield side.
He said: "What we've seen from playing Leicester is that we can trust this whole group and there's lots of guys who have deserved the opportunity to experience playing against a Premier League side with top payers in an unbelievable environment, a wonderful stadium.
