The Elite Development Squad gets their own taste of cup action when they take on Stockport County’s reserves at Hyde tonight.

The Manchester Senior Cup is back on the agenda for the first time since early February, when two goals from John Guidetti were enough to despatch Bury.

The Swedish striker has a taste for this competition, bagging another pair in the preceding fixture, a 4-0 win over Rochdale, and it was his penalty that gave the Blues a hard-fought win over Liverpool in the league last week.

Team: Loris Karius, Shaleum Logan, Courtney Meppen-Walter, Abdisalam Ibrahim, Reece Wabara, Ryan McGivern (C), James Poole, Abdul Razak, John Guidetti, Andrea Mancini, Jeremy Helan.

Subs: Harry Bunn, Tom Halsall, Ahmed Benali, Paul Clowes, Kieran Kennedy.

There is still one more Manchester Senior Cup game to be played after tonight, with a date for the visit to Stalybridge to play Oldham yet to be decided.

Admission is £3 for adults and £1 for concessions, kick off is at 7.00pm.
