FA Youth Cup- Fifth Round draw adds extra incentive to Wolves tie

Arsenal will face a trip to either Preston North End or Sunderland if they can overcome Wolves in the FA Youth Cup fourth round at Underhill on Tuesday.

The Gunners came from behind to beat Aston VIlla in round three and are confident of going all the way in the competition having reached the semi-finals in 2007.

Tuesday’s game against Wolves could prove to be an interesting affair. Arsenal’s opponents are currently in fourth place in Premier Academy League Group C in a group which contains heavyweights such as Man.City, Liverpool and Man.Utd. Wolves also possess highly-rated England schoolboy Zele Ismail who is reportedly a target for Chelsea.

At first glance it may be difficult to predict anything other than an Arsenal win but the Gunners went out to Brentford in the third round three years ago and were taken to extra-time by Wycombe the following season.
