Pardew has been criticised previously for naming weak XI in the cup competitions, however he will travel with strong squad to Gillingham.
Gillingham have won just one of their opening four League One games and Pardew is planning to filed a strong XI against a League One side.
Newcastle haven’t won a major trophy since 1969 and will be hoping to start their League Cup campaign with a win against a team not expected to progress to next round.
When asked about the squad he will take to Gillingham he said: “One of the biggest disappointing games for me last year was Cardiff when we should have won in the FA Cup [third round] and we lost it in the last eight or nine minutes.
“That’s our last cup game so we need to react to that and we need to get a win so I’ll probably take the same 20 players that I took today [to Aston Villa] to Gillingham.”
Newcastle United will be without Papiss Cisse and Davide Santon due to knee injuries while Cheikh Tiote is ruled out to feature in this match because of a hamstring issue.
Mike Williamson will miss out due to suspension, however Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa who missed goalless draw against Aston Villa on Weekend is likely to return after recovering from a knock.
