Championship sides Preston and Sunderland go head to head on Tuesday evening for a place in the Carabao Cup second round.

Preston kicked off their Championship season on Friday night by suffering a 2-0 defeat at home against Sheffield United, with Ryan Lowe's side struggling to match the quality of their rivals, who played in the Premier League last campaign.

Preston, who finished 10th in the league last season, are among the favourites to be relegated to League One this time out, and a Carabao Cup run could provide a boost around Deepdale.

However, they've only made it to the fourth round on three occasions since the 1980/81 campaign.

Sunderland, who finished 16th last time out in the Championship, got off to a perfect start last weekend as they won 2-0 at Cardiff, with Luke O'Nien and Jack Clarke netting.

Régis Le Bris's side will be hoping to finish in the top six this season to secure a play-off spot, while a Carabao Cup run would be a bonus.

Sunderland have reached the final of the competition twice, and they also made the quarter-finals in 2022, where they lost against Arsenal.
