Leeds United under-18s v Millwall under-18s live: FA Youth Cup semi-final, first-team squad member starts

Nearly 10,000 tickets had already been sold for tonight’s semi-final as of early Wednesday evening. Tickets are priced at £6 for adults and £3 for concessions.

A huge weekend obviously awaits as Leeds United head for Coventry City but we have hotfooted it from Daniel Farke’s pre-Coventry press conference at Thorp Arch to Elland Road for tonight’s FA Youth Cup semi-final versus Millwall’s under-18s in a 7pm start. Expecting well over 10,000 here as the young Whites look to book their place in the final against Manchester City. Team news here when it lands as Leeds look to win the competition for a third time in their history. It will be interesting to see if Charlie Crew is involved having made the first team bench for United’s last two games. He has started all four games as part of this fine cup run so far.

Millwall’s players checking out the pitch and just about every player has their phone out to capture the moment as they take in Elland Road and its surroundings.

Are 5th in the Under-18s Professional Development League South which is the tier below where Leeds are in the Under-18s Premier League North in which they sit 6th. All things being equal, you would have to make the young Whites favourites.

The game is being shown live on LUTV and also streamed by the FA on The FA Player. We will have live updates and analysis here throughout the night and, hopefully, some wining reaction afterwards too.

Leeds United under-18s v Millwall: Mahady, Richards, Cresswell, Lopata-White, Toulson, Chadwick, Vincent, McDonald, Crew, Chambers, Lane.
