Match Preview: Wigan Athletic U21s v Brentford U21s | OneFootball

Brentford will take on Wigan Athletic U21s in a Professional Development League fixture at Christopher Park Training Ground on Tuesday in a 1pm kick-off.

Neil MacFarlane’s side will be looking to build on their first league win last week, against Coventry City.

The young Bees scored early through Ashley Hay and did well to keep out their opponents for the remainder of the game, to ensure the clean sheet and the victory.

Speaking on last week's win, Brentford U21s midfielder Riley Owen said it felt good to get the three points and now we just want to continue building as a team.

He said: “The result against Coventry City was a good one and one of the things me and the boys were excited about going into the season was the prospect of being in a league."

“We played against a good team, who did well in parts but we got the important goal that won us the game which we were very happy about."

“The focus is now on a team we know will want to win against us, so we have to be ready.”
