    FT: Gillingham 0-4 Sheff Utd

    Nathan Jones
    Former Southampton manager speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live

    There is no shame in losing 4-0 to a Premier League side.

    This is not Gillingham's bread and butter, but for me if you lose in this fashion and are really going for it then you will hold your hands up.

    But I don't think Gillingham did anything special, Sheffield United had a bit of a swagger.

    Stoke 2-4 Brighton

    Wouter Burger is caught late by Carlos Baleba so while he's receiving treatment, Roberto De Zerbi will make a few more changes.

    Billy Gilmour is replaced by Cameron Peupion. Evan Ferguson is also replaced by Jack Hinchy, making his first team debut.

    That means Benicio Baker-Boaitey and James Milner are the only two outfield players on the bench not to come on for Brighton.

    Eastleigh did really well to hold on to this one after being made to play with 10 men for much of the match.

    Stoke 2-4 Brighton

    Nicely played by Pascal Gross, who helps Brighton out of a sticky patch in their own half, dinking it over to Pervis Estupinan on the far side.

    QPR 2-3 Bournemouth

    Sinclair Armstrong races down the right wing in a pacey QPR counter-attack, but it's brought to an end by Lewis Cook, who gets a yellow card for wiping out the Republic of Ireland international.

    The free-kick is lofted into the box and it's an easy punch away for Mark Travers.

    Captain Lewis Dunk is also taken off, as Carlos Baleba comes on.

    Stoke's Lewis Baker also makes way for FA Cup debutant and 16-year-old Souleymane Sidibe.
