Youth Cup preview: 'The lads work hard and can produce exciting moments'

Marc Bridge-Wilkinson's side have been in prolific form since continuing their progress in the tournament with a hard-fought 1-0 win at Manchester United in the last round.

The young Reds have bagged 10 goals in two league games against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Leeds United, taking their total in the U18 Premier League North to 65 in 21 matches.

Bridge-Wilkinson now wants to see his players carry that productivity into their Youth Cup tie against Leicester, with a home quarter-final versus West Ham United or Arsenal awaiting the victors.

Ahead of the 7pm BST kick-off at Leicester's training complex, we caught up with the U18s boss to preview the encounter…

On facing Leicester…

We are all looking forward to it.
