Southend United To Host Charlton Athletic In FA Cup Second Round

Shrimpers To Welcome Addicks To Roots Hall

Southend United will host Charlton Athletic in the second round of the FA Cup on Saturday, December 3. The match will be played at Roots Hall Stadium, with kick-off scheduled for 3pm.

Southend Will Be Looking To Cause An Upset

Southend are currently playing in the EFL League One, while Charlton are in the Championship. This means that Charlton will be the favorites for the match. However, Southend will be hoping to cause an upset and reach the third round of the FA Cup for the first time since 2016.

The Shrimpers have a good record against Charlton in recent years. They have won four of the last six meetings between the two sides, including a 2-1 victory at Roots Hall in the FA Cup first round in 2018.

Charlton Will Be Hoping To Avoid A Cupset

Charlton will be hoping to avoid a cupset and reach the third round of the FA Cup for the first time since 2019. The Addicks have a good squad and they should be too strong for Southend on paper.

Tickets For The Match Are On Sale Now

Tickets for the match are on sale now and can be purchased from the Southend United website. Prices start from £15 for adults and £10 for concessions.
