Nottingham are unbeaten in their last three matches and they head to this game on two straight wins, while their visitors head to the clash with a loss in their last game and two in five, with two wins as well. Nottingham are in ninth place and five points better than Stoke who  are on nine points. This will be Nottingham's third straight home game in the League Cup. In the first they needed post match penalties to beat Bury after a 1-1 draw in regular time and then they saw off Premier League opposition - Newcastle United 3 - 1 in their second game. They should find it attainable a win over Stoke here and especially having gone unbeaten in the last 10 competitive matches at home. They have four clean sheets in the last 10 home games. In the League Cup, Nottingham have lost just twice in the last seven. Stoke City, on the other hand, have not won any of their last eight matches across all competitions; they opened theoir League Cup campaign with a win over a Premier League side, Huddersfield Town and they will be pressured to repeat that here. Stoke City have managed just one clean sheet in their last eight competitive matches on the road; indeed, they have conceded two or more goals in their last four away matches. Nottingham are unbeaten in four matches against Stoke while they have kept three clean sheets in the run and none has produced over 2.5 goals.
