Mark Jackson's young Whites have not played since recording a 3-0 victory against league visitors Liverpool way back on February 7.

United's under-23s then saw three games postponed due to the influx of storms that hit the country, a league trip to Brighton and the Premier League Cup clash away at Mansfield Town falling by the wayside.

The game against the Stags was called off twice.
