MATCH PREVIEW: MACCLESFIELD FC U18’S VS WHITCHURCH ALPORT U18’S | FA YOUTH CUP

6 Oct 2025

Share:

Our U18’s belatedly continue their FA Youth Cup campaign on Tuesday evening against Whitchurch Alport at the Leasing.com Stadium after an impressive 4-1 victory in the first round qualifying.

The tie was originally set to take place on Friday 3rd October, but was re-scheduled for Tuesday evening due to the stormy weather conditions.

It’s set to be another great occasion as the youthful Silkmen side take to the Leasing.com Stadium turf under the lights in front of another anticipated large crowd.

Macclesfield fans are encouraged to attend once more if possible to spur our young lads on and help them progress to the next round of the cup.

Should the young Macc side progress in the competition, a Third Round Qualifying tie at home to Hartlepool United awaits.
