THE TEAMS: SOUTHEND v WATFORD
Tue 28 Aug 2007
AIDY Boothroyd sticks with the tried and tested youngsters in the Carling Cup and only makes one change from the side which saw off Gillingham.
After his start at the Walkers Stadium on Saturday, Steve Kabba makes way for the young Alex Campana, but elsewhere, it's as you were in the cup competition.
Shutting out the Gills two weeks ago will have the defence along with keeper Richard Lee wanting yet another clean sheet as Aidy Boothroyd's men look to progress into the third round draw.

The teams have not met since 1998 when a 1-1 draw was played out at Vicarage Road, whilst Watford's last trip to Essex saw them win 3-0 in November 1997, a game in which Peter Kennedy secured a memorable hat-trick.
