FA Youth Cup third round date confirmed
From the official Chelsea FC website:
Chelsea Under-18s will begin our 2025/26 FA Youth Cup campaign with an away trip to Brentford on Tuesday 16 December.
(Same date as Cardiff away in the Carabao Cup – Ed)
The young Blues recently learned our first opponents of this season’s competition, entering at the third round proper, where we will face Category Two side Brentford.
Last season’s FA Youth Cup journey opened with a dramatic 3-2 comeback win away at Leicester City, followed by a dominant 7-1 victory over Merstham Town at Kingsmeadow. Our run came to an end in the fifth round against Manchester United.
This year’s campaign starts at Wheatsheaf Park, where we travel to Brentford on Tuesday 16 December for a 7pm kick-off, as we look to build on last season’s performances.
