Town's players celebrate after beating Sunderland in the last round

The Terriers host City in the third round of the competition at the Accu Stadium this evening in a 7.45pm kickoff, after knocking out Leicester City and Sunderland in the previous two rounds.

Town now take on a side who are eight-time winners of the Carabao Cup, including six successes in the past 12 seasons, while tonight's visitors have won 18 trophies in total under Pep Guardiola so far.

Discussing his side’s approach to this evening's fixture, Grant said: “You have to prepare like you're going to have significantly less of the football, you're going to have to be humble enough to accept that you're going to have to work so extremely hard, with the real stark possibility that their quality will find a way to undo you at some point, and you have to do all of that whilst remaining positive and clear on your own goals and aims for that fixture.
