Fulham U18s striker Cauley Woodrow will face Middlesbrough in the FA Youth Cup

 

Fulham have been handed a tricky tie against Middlesbrough in the third round of the FA Youth Cup.

The Whites, who were knocked out by Burnley at the quarter-final stage last season having shocked Manchester City in the previous round, have been drawn at home in a tie that is scheduled to be played on December 15.

Middlesbrough, who have a proud history of bringing top talent through their Academy set-up,  have real pedigree in the competition having reached successive finals in 2003 and 2004 and Dave Parnaby’s side are sure to provide a real test for Fulham’s youngsters.
