City’s Elite Development side travel to Morecambe on Wednesday evening with a cup semi-final in the offing if they can return from the Lancashire coast with a win.

Andy Welsh’s side take on the Shrimps’ reserves at the Globe Arena in their final Central League Cup group fixture needing three points to go level with Preston at the top of Group A.

Superior goal difference would see City go through to a knock-out fixture away to Stoke. The Blues won their opening fixture in this competition 5-0 over Tranmere, but then suffered a 3-1 defeat at home to Preston in a game notable for the return to action of Carlos Tevez for the first time since last September.

Kick off at the Globe Arena is at 7pm, postcode for the sat nav is LA4 4TB.
