ATHLETIC’S under-18s host Luton Town in the fourth round of the FA Youth Cup on Wednesday, January 27 (7pm kick-off).
Tony Philliskirk’s youngsters booked their place in the next stage thanks to a dramatic penalty shoot-out win over Premier League club Bournemouth last week, after the sides played out an entertaining 1-1 draw.
Athletic are taking on a well-regarded side who have lost only once all season — and who themselves won 4-2 at Bournemouth on Saturday. The winners of the fourth-round tie will be away at Preston in the next stage.
