Sunderland and Huddersfield Town clash in Round 2 of the EFL Cup, and it should be an interesting one as both push to qualify in this single-leg knockout tie. With both teams bringing very different momentum into this game, we’ve broken down the numbers to bring you our best Sunderland vs Huddersfield Town match prediction.

The Black Cats are looking to bounce back after a frustrating 2-0 defeat to Burnley. On the other end, The Terriers are riding strong early-season form and will aim to impose themselves on the road. Notably,Huddersfield have shown an attacking intent that naturally translates into corner kick opportunities.

Their most recent outing saw them edge Stevenage 1-0, and in the two games before that, they scored twice in each match against Doncaster and Blackpool. That consistent pressure has also translated into corners, with Huddersfield reaching four or more in each of their last three competitive games.

Sunderland, on the other hand, not only slipped to defeat against Burnley but also allowed plenty of wide play, conceding four or more corners in both their competitive matches this season. Even history favours this prediction, as Huddersfield made four and even eleven corners in their last two visits to the Stadium of Light.
