Pre-match

Millwall quailified for the final by beating Bradford City in the semi-final with police horses being deployed on the pitch at The Den to quell a pitch invasion by Millwall supporters. Millwall manager, Neil Harris, called on the club's supporters to create a "hostile atmosphere" at Wembley. During the club's last appearance at Wembley, for a semi-final in the 2013 FA cup against Wigan Athletic, their supporters fought amongst themselves.
