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

The visiting Hamilton Academical played their last game only four days ago, a Premiership match. That game was also an away game, at Hibernian. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Hamilton Academical form and stats

Last season their League Cup adventure ended in the 2nd round.

Academical has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Academical play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 2-3 to Hibernian. Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Dundee United.

It's a bit worrying for Academical that their goalkeeper Kyle Gourlay made six saves in the Hibernian game last time out, but still couldn''t prevent the loss.

A new game in only four days for Academical, the League Cup home match versus Ayr United. Busy days.
