The young Magpies were due to host their Whites counterparts at Whitley Park on Monday, 4th December but the league clash was postponed due to poor weather conditions and a frozen pitch after heavy snowfall on Tyneside the week prior.

Ben Dawson’s side will now face Leeds on Monday, 26th February, with kick-off set at 7pm (GMT) and the venue remaining the same.

A date and kick-off time for Newcastle United Under-21s’ Northumberland Senior Cup quarter-final tie against Bedlington Terriers, which was also postponed last week due to a frozen pitch, will be confirmed on nufc.co.uk in due course.
