Sheffield Wednesday have an opportunity to rake in some consolatory revenge as they take on Sunderland at Hillsborough in the Carabao Cup first round.

The Owls' hearts were broken when Patrick Roberts stabbed home a 93rd-minute equaliser for the visitors in the League One play-off semi-final second leg in May.

The goal put Sunderland ahead on aggregate and proved enough to win the tie. The Black Cats marched to Wembley and toppled Wycombe to book their return to the Championship.

The sides meet again with a very different context. Both sides have started their campaigns in strong form and won't be keen to see this one run beyond the 90th minute.

In an incredible Tuesday night of action, 10 Championship teams were pitted against lower-league opposition and all 10 were defeated. Sheffield Wednesday will be determined to make it 11.

Our prediction: Sheffield Wednesday v Sunderland

Neither side is expected to field a full XI. The cup is always a bonus, but with Wednesday desperate for promotion and Sunderland craving survival, it is not a supreme priority for either.

There could be an extra layer of spice given the events of May, but Sunderland have the edge in terms of quality and should see this one through with less drama.

Our prediction: Sheffield Wednesday 1-2 Sunderland (10/1 at bet365)
