FA Youth Cup Fifth Round Proper Draw

The big prize

The young Blues will be hoping to progress to the Fifth Round of the FA Youth Cup with a win in the Fourth Round at home to Huddersfield Town on the evening of Tuesday 17th January in a 7pm kick-off at Brunton Park.

The draw has been unbelieveably kind to United so far with the youngsters picking up a home tie in each round of the competition. The lads will face a big challenge though from an FA Premiership Academy side in Huddersfield Town as they look to earn the right to face Championship outfit Sheffield United or Premiership side Wigan Athletic at a date to be agreed in late January or early February.

Carlisle have beaten Macclesfield 3-1, Doncaster 5-3 on penalties and Chipstead 5-1 to date and have done very well to reach this far. The lads will be going all out though to create a Cup shock, of which there have been many in this year's competition, and let's hope they can get a win in front of a bigger crowd than has been in attendance so far.
