Use a surprise move such as the Alekhine defense:

Prefer? That's just a matter of taste. The Caro offers less to learn compared to the Sicilian...but the Sicilian offers the likelihood of sharper play for Black. As someone who would rather attack than defend, I'd take the Sicilian. As an e4 player, I'd rather see the Caro come at me than the Sicilian.

Sicilian is usually very tactical and sharp but Caro-kann can be safer defensively. I play both but i usually feel safer with caro-kann.
