Preston North End's FA Youth Cup tie against Oxford United has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch at the Kassam Stadium.

The Lilywhites' youngsters were due to face the U's on Wednesday evening in a fourth round clash.

It was not a huge surprise the game was postponed following an 8am pitch inspection on Wednesday morning.
