Ben Wilkinson and our Under-19s will travel to the south of Finland on Wednesday 4 February, with kick-off scheduled for 15:00 (UK) at the Helsinki Football Stadium.
The Round of 32 is our first outing in the knockout stage of the prestigious European competition this season.
Our young boys in blue secured our place in the latter end of the Youth League following four wins and two defeats that saw us place 10th with 12 points.
And Wilkinson’s side will be looking to carry our recent eye-catching form in the Youth League into the Round of 32.
Our final League Phase game was an emphatic 4-0 triumph at Real Madrid in December.
The month prior, City put on a wonderful show, beating Bayer Leverkusen 6-0 in our final home game.
But standing in our way is Helsinki, who qualified for the Round of 32 through the Youth League Domestic Champions Path.
Their European journey began following their 2024 U17 B-Junior League triumph in Finland. They then overcame Lithuanian side Be1 NFA, Trabzonspor and Genk in the Domestic Champions Path to secure their place in the Round of 32.
