Match Preview and Team News
Luton Town FC
Following the 2-1 loss in the first leg at the Stadium of Light, Luton Town are expected to make home advantage count when they receive Sunderland.
Elijah Adebayo’s goal could not be protected as Amad Diallo and Trai Hume gave Sunderland the advantage in the first leg.
Luton Town are hoping to make their first appearance in the English Premier League but to make this come true, they must overcome Sunderland and emerge victorious in the final at Wembley.
Sunderland AFC
Goals from Amad Diallo and Trai Hume were enough to see off Luton Town at the Stadium of Light. However, there’s a lot to play for in the second leg on Tuesday night.
Over seven first-team players on the sidelines is a worry for Sunderland. The Black Cats need a convincing result be it a draw or a possibility of a victory to advance to the final.
