Coventry City U18's kick off their league campaign with an inter-league game at Blackburn Rovers.
Greg Rioch's side go into the game full of confidence after a good pre-season.
City won four of their seven matches with two defeats and a highly creditable draw at Premier League Everton last Saturday, scoring 22 goals in the process.
Striker Matty West has scored five of those goals plus one for the reserves at Villa in midweek.
