U-23s: Derby v Arsenal - The Brief

Our under-23s could climb up to third in the Premier League 2 table on Monday night when they face Derby County at Loughborough University Stadium.

THE STORY SO FAR

Freddie Ljungberg’s side will be hoping to return to winning ways on Monday night after slipping to a frustrating 5-4 loss to Chelsea in their last PL2 outing.

We took the lead inside eight minutes through Bukayo Saka, but less than 10 minutes later Chelsea found themselves two goals to the good.

Strikes from Daniel Ballard and Eddie Nketiah drew us level before the break, but Conor Gallagher restored the visitors’ lead on the hour mark.
