Forest Green team news
Looking ahead to Wednesday's game, it appears that the Green Army have several in-form attacking players. Christian Doidge (12), Charlie McCann (11), and Kyle McAllister (10) have each reached double figures in the National League this season, and it's quite possible all three will be in the starting lineup.
Defensively, the hosts have seen a consistent partnership develop with Sean Long, Ryan Inniss, Cian Harries, and Jamie Robson forming the backline for a significant portion of the campaign. They are likely to continue in their roles for this match.
Southend United team news
On the other side, Southend might be dealing with some fatigue following their demanding 120-minute semi-final victory just six days prior. Despite this, their manager, Kevin Maher, might choose to field the same eleven that secured the win.
Notably, Charley Kendall came off the bench and scored the decisive goal in extra time. This performance could see him earn a starting position alongside Tom Hopper in their attack.
