Fulham Under-18s will make the long trip up to Rochdale for the Third Round of the FA Youth Cup.

The young Whites will be hoping to enjoy a longer run this time around, having narrowly lost 3-2 against a strong Everton side at this stage last season.

Our opposition scraped through their First Round tie against York City, beating them on penalties after the two sides were tied at 1-1. They then defeated Shrewsbury Town 2-1 earlier this week to ensure their name remained in the hat.

Ali Melloul's side are enjoying a strong run of form and will hope to transfer that over into what is a highly respected youth competition.

A date for the tie will be confirmed in due course, but it must be played before Saturday 17th December.
