The Saints emerged victorious the last time these two sides met in the League Cup two years ago. Southampton won 2-1 in the third round as Arsenal crashed out early in the competition. Last season, Southampton thrashed Arsenal 4-0 at St. Mary's as the Gunners had a forgettable encounter, to say the least.

Arsenal have won just one out of their last five matches against Southampton and with both the sides going to play soon in the league, another exciting encounter is on the cards.
