The young Bluebirds will be back in league action for their third match in eight days as they look to host Charlton Athletic on Tuesday afternoon.

Kicking off last week with a 2-1 Severnside derby victory away from home, City followed up the win with a 1-1 draw against Colchester United on Friday, fighting back to earn a draw as Tanatswa Nyakuhwa headed home in the 84th minute of play.

Charlton Athletic are currently in sixth place on the PDL South table, with 21 points earned from 15 matches played.

The Addicks have won three of their last five league matches, most recently registering an 8-1 victory over Ipswich Town, on Tuesday, February 13th.

Ahead of the match, Darren Purse previewed the midweek clash: 

"After Friday's draw, we'll have another opportunity to put in a better performance," began Darren. "The best thing about football is that you have always got another game coming up, and it's another chance to show how good they are.”

"We've had boys who are playing at all levels around the Club, both working between us and the U18 side, as well as those who are involved in travelling with the First Team, as we saw over the weekend. As a group we've been stretched, but from our point of view there are still no excuses.

"We want a better performance from the boys, while keeping this as a learning environment where we're always looking to improve."
