FA Youth Cup preview: United v Southampton

Manchester United hit the FA Youth Cup trail on Monday night when Southampton provide the opposition at Old Trafford at 19:00 GMT.

Kieran McKenna's side have been in impressive form and an entertaining affair looks assured with free entry for all spectators and the game being broadcast live on MUTV.

Ro-Shaun Williams and Callum Gribbin look set to feature after sitting out the Reserves' defeat at Chelsea on Friday but competition for places is fierce. Kayne Diedrick-Roberts will not be involved as he has joined Bournemouth on a youth loan.

"I was very aware, even from the outside, that United have a big tradition in the competition," said McKenna.
