Our forecast for this FA Cup game:

Gillingham

Gillingham

Charlton

Charlton

Gillingham and Charlton have the goal of securing a spot in the third round of the FA Cup as they face off at Priestfield Stadium on Saturday. After a 3-1 defeat to Tranmere, Gillingham recovered and regained their confidence, but now they face a tough challenge against the League One team. While there are no new injuries for the home team, Williams and Lapslie may make an appearance in the starting lineup.

The Red Robins, however, hope to capitalize on their 2-1 victory against Cheltenham Town. Unfortunately, they will be without Miles Leaburn who sustained an injury in their previous match. Serbia midfielder Slobodan Tedic is likely to take his place in the starting lineup. Nonetheless, a win for Charlton Athletic should be taken into account as they are a stronger team compared to Gillingham.

The game will take place on 02/12/2023 at 4:00 PM.

Prediction:
0-2

Player in the spotlight (Jake Forster-Caskey):

Jake Forster-Caskey

Jake Forster-Caskey, a midfielder for Charlton Athletic in League One, was born in Southend-on-Sea, England on April 25, 1994. He began his career at Brighton & Hove Albion, playing for both the youth and senior teams. During his time with the Seagulls, he scored five goals in 67 league games.

Following a period of being loaned to teams such as Oxford United, Milton Keynes Dons, and Rotherham United, the British soccer player joined Charlton Athletic in the winter of 2017 on a contract lasting two and a half years. Jake swiftly became a key player for the club, scoring 5 goals in 43 games during the 2017/2018 League One season.

Unfortunately, he was unable to participate for the majority of the 2018/2019 season due to a severe knee injury. His primary role is as a central midfielder, but he also has the ability to play as a defensive or left midfielder.

Highlighted Team (Gillingham):

Gillingham

In 1893, Gillingham FC was established as an English team that participates in League One. The team is recognized for their blue shirts featuring black stripes, but they also wear white shirts with accents of yellow and blue, and yellow shirts for away games.

The home stadium of the club is Priestfield Stadium, which can accommodate up to 11,582 spectators. Gillingham City has been using this stadium since its establishment. When it comes to their main rivals, Gillingham has developed a fierce rivalry with Swindon Town over the years. However, it should be mentioned that Swindon fans do not view Gillingham as their top rival.

Roy Hillyard, a former goalkeeper, holds the record for the most appearances as a player for Gillingham City. He represented the English club from 1974 to 1991 and played in a total of 655 matches. Brian Yeo, on the other hand, is the highest scorer in the team’s history with 149 goals in 387 games from 1963 to 1975.
