Details have been confirmed for Sunderland Under-18s' FA Youth Cup fifth-round tie against Swindon Town.

 

The young Black Cats will host the Robins at the Stadium of Light on Friday 2 February (KO 7pm).

 

Our Under-18s will look to carry on their fine form after previous victories against Middlesbrough and Gillingham.

 

Ticket information will be available in due course.

 

Academy Manager, Robin Nicholls said: "The fixture versus Swindon will be another tough tie against good opposition. It also gives our players another opportunity to experience playing at the SoL and gain a deeper insight into what the environment is like at first team level.

 

“Our Club is all about youth development, so it is a great opportunity for us to provide them with another fantastic development experience. The staff and players are all really looking forward to the game.”
