The Under-21s will host the Magpies at Loughborough University Stadium (7pm kick-off) and dcfc.co.uk has brought together all the key information you will need to know ahead of the game.
Team News...
Defenders Harrison Solomon and Max Bardell have been sidelined due to injury in recent weeks and are set to miss out once again.
Midfielder Osazee Aghatise was withdrawn in the first half of the recent 3-0 loss at Aston
Villa in Premier League 2 - Division 2 and will have his fitness assessed once again.
The Season So Far...
The Under-21s ended their long wait for their first point of the season in Premier League 2 - Division 2 with a 1-1 draw at Sunderland in February, with winger Sonny Blu Lo-Everton scoring a dramatic late equaliser in the North East.
The draw ended the Under-21s' run of 12 straight losses in the league this term, with Pat Lyons having a young and inexperienced squad to select from, although they have been unable to pick up a point since.
Outside of the league, the Under-21s have enjoyed success in cup
competitions this term and reached the last 16 of the Premier League Cup
before tasting defeat to local rivals Nottingham Forest in February,
while they reached the Final of the Derbyshire Senior Cup against National League - North side Buxton FC and went down to 2-1 at Pride Park Stadium last week.
