Unfortunately you can't go and watch the U18s at Bodymore. Admission is only open to Club Staff, Scouts from other clubs and Parents of players.
You can get tickets for the Under 21s on the Villa website. Games are usually on a Friday Evening.
You can get to see the Under 18s in the FA Youth Cup, which will always be played at the First Team Stadium of the home team.
The best games for the U21s are the Birmingham Senior Cup games and we are always drawn away if we are against a non league club. We have just been drawn to defend our title starting against Romulus who play at Sutton Town FC, date to be confirmed.

Vassell played for them didn’t he?

Another thumping win(4-1) at Leicester for the U-18s. Clear lead at the top of the table. New nose, ex-Albion manager doing a good job.

Today:
Aston Villa boosted their hopes of progression in the UEFA Youth League with an action-packed 6-2 victory over 10-man Club Brugge on Wednesday afternoon.
A breathless first half at The Nest produced five goals and a red card, while the end-to-end encounter saw three further strikes after the break, with the woodwork also hit twice, as the Young Lions emerged victorious to claim three crucial points in Belgium.
Jessi Da Silva fired the hosts in front after just six minutes, setting the tone for a thrilling clash, which was levelled by Bradley Burrowes’ close-range finish.
Alejandro Granados’ penalty put Club Brugge back in front just after the half hour, only for Ben Broggio to equalise with a spot-kick of his own, after his initial strike was blocked on the goal-line by the arm of Axl Wins, who was duly dismissed.
Alexander Vandeperre’s own goal handed Villa a 3-2 advantage at the break, with Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba adding a fourth in the 72nd minute to give the visitors breathing space.
Mason Cotcher was introduced off the bench immediately afterwards and duly bagged a brace within the space of just seven minutes to cap an impressive afternoon for Villa.
The dramatic matchday four triumph leaves Josep Gombau’s 15th-placed side on six points in the European youth competition, hoping to secure a spot in the top 24 and a place in the knockout stages.

Worth watching the highlights of this on the website -what a crazy game!!

Good to see Patterson getting fit and playing regularly. If we sell Lucas next summer, I can see Travis becoming a back-up for Maatsen.

[Percy McCarthy]

^^ Cheers Dave, enjoyed that.

Broggia’s the new Joe isn’t he?

[dcdavecollett]

Hi Perce. Yes, he certainly moves like Grealish. My first impression of BB was he was a bit selfish but players like him will tend to stay on the ball longer.

 Barrow away tonight in the EFL Trophy, a win or a draw would take us to the knock out round where we could face Blues or Wrexham. Am I right thinking the U21 can only play away in this competition ?

[cdbearsfan]

U21s can only play away in the Group Stage. In the last 32, group winners are at home and group runners-up away, so we could be at home. You can't play a team from your own group.

From last sixteen you can draw anyone in your own region.

The competition seems to be regionalised until the semi-finals, so that's the earliest we could play SH as they're classed as South while we're North.

[VillaTim]

Play like they did at Bolton we should be going through

[Gareth]

See what team is available with all the international call ups…will likely be younger than the young team that played Bolton

Thank you, that clears it all up.
