Our under-21s are set to kick-off their Leasing.com Trophy campaign on Tuesday night when they face Northampton Town at Sixfields Stadium.
THE STORY SO FAR
Steve Bould’s side have made an impressive start to their Premier League 2 season, sitting second in the table with seven points from three fixtures.
They kick-started their 2019/20 campaign with a comfortable 3-1 win over Blackburn Rovers and a 2-1 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion, before being held to a 2-2 draw by Everton at Emirates Stadium.
Our youngsters dominated the Toffees throughout, playing some fine attacking football, but they were unable to stop the champions from taking their chances and securing a valuable point.
