Arsenal’s under-18s will face Birmingham City in their second Premier League Cup group stage match on Saturday, October 5, at the Knighthead Training Ground, with a 12pm kick-off.
The young Gunners are aiming to secure a win after three consecutive 3-3 draws in the under-18 Premier League (v Brighton, Southampton, and West Brom). In their opening Premier League Cup match, Jack Wilshere‘s side won 5-3 against Liverpool.
Birmingham, last season’s national champions in the Professional Development League, currently sit third in their league but lost 3-0 to Crystal Palace in their Premier League Cup opener.
