Five for the Weekend

A selection of matches that may be of interest over the course of the weekend.

On Friday night, Portsmouth host Newcastle United in the FA Youth Cup, under the lights at Fratton Park for a 7pm kick-off. Admission is priced at £4 Adults and £2 Seniors, Special Concessions and anyone aged 22 and under.

Not too far away, Aldershot Town will host the Premier League 2 clash between Chelsea and Manchester United Under-23's. Admission to the 7:05pm kick-off is priced at £3 Adults and £1 Concessions.

The FA Trophy is the main event on the Non-League scene this weekend and National League high-fliers Forest Green Rovers are in action at home to Truro City. Ticket prices have been reduced and Adult standing tickets purchased before the day of the game will cost £8. Under-11's go free.

Stretching the weekend out until Monday evening and Gillingham are the visitors to the Macron Stadium for a televised League One clash for which Bolton Wanderers have made all home tickets available for £5.

On the same evening there is free admission at Old Trafford for Manchester United against Southampton in the FA Youth Cup, kick-off 7pm.

Turnstiles will open from 6pm and there is no need to obtain tickets in advance. Fair play to United for this as a number of the bigger clubs, drawn at home in Third Round of the Youth Cup have opted to play their ties away from their main stadiums.
