Oliver Reiss’ side return to Under-18 Premier League North action for the first time in 2026 following the festive break.
In our latest encounter we travel to East Lancashire on Saturday 24 January, with kick-off scheduled for 11:00 (UK).
Leaders City will be looking to secure our 11th league victory of the season with the young Blues currently four points clear of second placed Manchester United.
Rovers meanwhile sit 12th in the table with 11 points accrued so far from their 10 games to date.
The Blues played out a tough 2-1 victory against Everton last time out in the league. But can we continue our winning momentum into the new year?
CITY+ subscribers will be able to find out, with the game available to watch live on mancity.com and our official app.
