Town face the first of two games in four days at Arsenal on Saturday morning when the U18s take on the Gunners’ youngsters at their London Colney Training Ground at Shenley, Hertfordshire (KO 10.45am). The senior side are off to the Emirates for the second leg of the Carling Cup semi-final on Tuesday.

The Blues youngsters will be out for revenge, having lost 3-1 to Arsenal in their home fixture earlier in the season, Caolan Lavery, who is still missing due to the knee injury he suffered in the FA Youth Cup defeat to Peterborough, scoring Town’s goal.

U18s squad: Cody Cropper, Callum Bennett, Joe Whight, Aaron Jones, Josh Meekings, Rory McKeown, Tom Winter, Elliot Scotcher, Cormac Burke, Josh Carson, Carel Tiofack, Jide Maduako, Conor O’Donnell, Jack Simmons, David October, Byron Lawrence.
