Spurs’ Under 18 side face Ipswich Town in the third round of the prestigious FA Youth Cup, on Thursday (the game starts at 19:00pm) at Stevenage’s Lamex Stadium. Stuart Lewis’ Spurs side face a difficult opening game in the competition, with Ipswich likely to be difficult to win against. Spurs have not won a competitive game of football at this level in any of their last four matches. Meanwhile Ipswich Town, are in second place in the Professional Development League and are doing well this season. This will be a very interesting game of football, in this famous competition. I will be reporting on the game, and I would like to wish the Spurs side all the very best of luck for the match. Here’s hoping that Spurs will go far in the competition this season.
My predicted lineup: (4-2-3-1) Gunter, Bryan-Waugh, Dorrington, Sayers (c), Hackett, Willhoft-King, Davies, McKnight, Haysman, Torraj, Bloxham.
Subs from: Hayton, Andiyapan, Linton, Abbott, Owen, Hall, Irow.
Injured/unavailable: N/A.
Doubtful: N/A.
Previous meeting: N/A.
My score prediction: Spurs 2-1.
My one to watch: Ipswich Town centre-forward Tyrese Osbourne.
