Colchester United's young guns are back in action tonight in the FA Youth Cup.

Joe Dunne's charges take on Cardiff City in the fourth round of the competition at Layer Road (kick-off 7.30pm).

They booked their place with a sensational 2-1 win over the best young talent Premiership leaders Chelsea could offer back in December. And Dunne will be looking for his youngsters to go out and better the Academy side from Wales tonight.

Victory would see them head into a fifth-round tie against Crewe Alexandra. The Railwaymen defeated Plymouth Argyle 2-0 on Tuesday.
