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

Only a few days to rest for the host team, as they had a Premier League match only four days back. This match was also played here at Villa Park. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Stevenage have had more rest.
