Cardiff come to Wembley after conceding only 2 goal en route to the final and are a very determined outfit, they are a much better team then their League position suggests. They have an excellent mix of Experience and youth, and in Jimmy Floyd Hasselbank, they have a player brimming with resolve and commitment. He has become a talisman for Cardiff and could well become even more than that.

David Jones the Casrdiff Manager, is a wily, astute Liverpudlian, who will know how to beat Portsmouth, but has to hope that his players carry out the match plan. Harry Redknapp, the Portsmouth Manager, knows his side must win to qualify automatically for Europe and in theory his side has the bigger incentive. Redknapp has been trying to get back to Wembley for more than 40 years and having finally got there he will hope to be rewarded with a win.They have slipped up at the tail end of their season in the Premier League and he will also want to redress that and give his fans a big end of season celebration.
Neither Club have won the Trophy in recent years, Cardiff’s only win came in 1927 and Portsmouth’s only triumph took place in 1939.
