Millwall renew FA Youth Cup rivalry with Chelsea

Millwall’s U18s will face Chelsea in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup at The Den on Wednesday.

The tie is a 7pm kick off and tickets are priced at £5 for adults and £1 for U16s.

Millwall booked their spot in the last eight with a 3-0 away win at Coventry City at the start of this month with Kavalli Heywood scoring twice in the first half with Adedapo Olugbodi adding another goal in the 62nd minute.

Heywood also netted in the 4-1 victory at Grimsby Town in the previous round. All the goals came after the restart with Frankie Maciocia, Frankie Baker and Oliver Whitby putting the Lions into a 4-0 lead before a late consolation.

Chelsea defeated Crystal Palace to set up the meeting with Millwall.

Millwall met the same opposition in February 2020 but at Stamford Bridge – with 1,000 of their fans making the short trip across the capital.

It was 0-0 at the break with Armando Broja, now on loan at Fulham, who clinched a 1-0 win for the hosts.
