National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Gillingham or Southampton that keep their silverware dream alive.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Gillingham form and stats

Last season their Carabao Cup adventure ended in the round of 16.

Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Jake Turner not having conceded a league goal in 192 minutes.

A good away victory last time out for Gillingham, who won 1-0 against Stockport County. Manager Harris felt very clever after McKenzie scored the winning goal against Stockport County, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 69th minute. Defender Ogie got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.75/10. Ogie won 13 of 15 duels.

In the preceding match a 1-0 victory visiting Salford City.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Gillingham, as the League Two home game vs Accrington Stanley is only four days away.

Southampton form and stats

Playing away, Southampton have won 1 game, drawn 0 and suffered 0 defeats in the Championship this season.

Southampton play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 2-1 victory visiting Sheffield Wednesday. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Martin when Adams scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 79th minute. Midfielder Ward-Prowse was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.84. Ward-Prowse served one assist, hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 94 successful passes (of 101 total).

A draw for Southampton before that, at their own venue hosting Liverpool (4-4).

A quick return to home after this game, as Southampton are hosting Norwich City in the Championship only four days away.

{2 goals} so far away for Southampton, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 1 league match away.
