OLDHAM under-15s face their toughest test of the season when they take on York in the ESFA Inter-Association fourth round on Saturday (10.30am kick-off), with the venue still to be confirmed.
Oldham have hit top form in the national district knockout competition this season.
After receiving a first round bye, they went on to run out convincing 5-2 victors against Bradford before overcoming a strong Leeds side 2-1 after extra-time.
With just one defeat to their name all season — against Bolton — Oldham should go into the tie full of confidence. A last 16 trip to Stockport, who beat Manchester 2-1, awaits the winners.
