A classic cup clash between these Premier League teams will surely keep fans on the edge of their seats. Follow this clash with our guide.

The League Cup will continue on Wednesday with two games that will become quite interesting, and one of those will be the one featuring Southampton and Manchester City.

The Saints will enter this game trying to keep their form in terms of Cup matches, especially because their form in the Premier League has seen them lose their last three matches. In terms of cup action, Southampton won their recent clash against Crystal Palace, which will certainly be an ego boost for their upcoming match against the EPL title contenders.

The exact opposite comes when analyzing Manchester City, as they have thrived both on league and cup games. Guardiola's team is unbeaten in four out of their last five matches, which include wins against Liverpool, Leeds United, and two more against Chelsea, a team they beat in consecutive games 1-0 (in the Premier League) and 4-0 (in the FA Cup). The Cityzens have only conceded twice in their last four games, a defensive effort the team will try to keep up during this clash.

All data and stats seem to point at a win for the Sky Blues, but Southampton may still surprise Pep's crew like other teams have done in recent cup clashes. Here are some interesting facts to keep an eye on before this match kicks off.

On the other hand, Manchester City started their run in the tournament a bit later, reaching the Third Round and beating Chelsea with a 2-0 score. After the World Cup break, Pep Guardiola's crew struggled to defeat Liverpool, but eventually claimed a 3-2 win over Klopp's men.
