U18s preview: Norwich City v Arsenal

Our under-18s will aim to get back to winning ways as we travel to East Anglia to face Norwich City on Saturday, October 26, with kick-off set for 12pm (UK time).

It marks the beginning of a new chapter for our under-18s, as assistant coach Adam Birchall steps up to the head coach role, following Jack Wilshere's recent move to join Norwich City’s first-team coaching staff.


The Opposition: Norwich City  

The Canaries have had a mixed start to their season, securing just one win, alongside three draws and two losses, accumulating six points from their opening six matches.  

Norwich earned a valuable point away to second-placed Brighton & Hove Albion in their last outing. Before that, they delivered an impressive 3-1 victory over Derby County in the Premier League Cup.  

One to watch is La’Sean Sealey, who has netted five goals in six league games so far this season.
