Reading U18 form and stats
Last season, Reading's FA Youth Cup journey ended in the 3rd round.A strong away win for Reading U18 against Bromley U18 the last match, as Furlong, Ehibhatiomhan and Holzman were on target.
Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Norwich U18.The match schedule is unforgiving for Reading as they have a new game in only two days, a Premier League U18 match thankfully also at home. Birmingham City U18 are visiting.
Manchester United U18 form and stats
Manchester United U18's mission in FA Youth Cup last season failed in the 4th round.The supporters enjoyed Manchester's previous game versus Scunthorpe United U18, a FA Youth Cup 4-2 win played at home. As you can tell from the result, the match against Scunthorpe United U18 was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?
Preceding that game, the 0-3 loss visiting Everton U18's place.Head 2 Head
