Manchester City make the trip to the John Smith's Stadium on Wednesday night as they lock horns with Huddersfield Town in the third round of the Carabao Cup.
Pep Guardiola's men head into this tie on the back of a 1-1 draw against Arsenal at the Emirates in league action, while the Terriers were held to a goalless stalemate by Burton Albion in League One over the weekend.
The Terriers have already pulled off two surprises to reach this stage, edging past Championship side Leicester City on penalties in the opening round before repeating the trick against Premier League outfit Sunderland in round two.
As for City, this will mark their first outing in the competition this season. Guardiola's side are chasing their first League Cup crown since their dominant stretch between 2017-18 and 2020-21, when they lifted the trophy four years running.

Huddersfield team news
The hosts are set to remain without Herbie Kane, Lynden Gooch, and Jack Whatmough, though all three are nearing a return in the coming weeks. Manager Darren Grant is expected to stick with a similar lineup to the one that eliminated both Leicester City and Sunderland, with Daniel Vost and David Kasumu anchoring the midfield. Up front, leading scorer Joe Taylor is likely to spearhead the attack, joined by Dion Charles, Leo Castledine, and Will Alves.
Manchester City team news
For City, a number of regulars will be missing. Mateo Kovacic, Rayan Aït-Nouri, Omar Marmoush, and Rayan Cherki are all sidelined with fitness problems, while Erling Haaland remains a doubt after suffering back discomfort that forced him off against Arsenal. In goal, James Trafford—who started the campaign before losing his place to Gianluigi Donnarumma—is tipped to reclaim his spot for this cup fixture.
Elsewhere, Guardiola is expected to rotate heavily, with opportunities likely for Savinho, Rico Lewis, Nico González, and Oscar Bobb as City balances squad depth with a demanding schedule.
