PREVIEW Oxford United U18 v Southend United U18

Oxford United’s Under 18s welcome Southend United to the Bangkok Glass Training Centre on Saturday morning as they continue their Merit League campaign.

United have the opportunity to leapfrog their opponents who currently sit in third place and have had some good results in recent weeks. Southend have started their Merit League campaign in the same form they finished the Youth Alliance, with 7 wins in their last 10 games and will pose a real threat to the young U’s as Coach Pablo Haysham told us

“It will be a good game. We were disappointed to lose at Cambridge last week but it’s a young group and we need to see they have learned lessons from that performance against a strong Southend side.”

The game kicks off at 11am and we'll have a report right here as soon as possible after.
