Millwall striker Tom Bradshaw: We wanted Crystal Palace in FA Cup

Millwall striker Tom Bradshaw insists they can upset FA Cup opponents Crystal Palace next month.

Bradshaw said the Millwall dressing room were gunning for a local derby when the draw for the third round was made in early December.

"Whenever the draw is on TV it gets plenty of the lads talking on the group chat," Bradshawtold the South London Press. "You're hoping for a West Ham or Crystal Palace – a local game which the fans can enjoy and we as players can enjoy.

"Nine times out of 10 I wouldn't say you are disappointed with the draw but the chances of you getting the draw you actually want are really slim.

"To get Palace is a massive game for the club. It will be a privilege to be a part of it and hopefully we can get a good result against them to give the fans a real lift."
