Gills supporters are being warned to allow plenty of time for their journey if travelling to Wembley through Central London by tube.
Planned engineering works mean the Jubilee Line, which many fans might have used if coming into Charing Cross station, will be closed.
Replacement buses will be running between Stanmore and Wembley Park.
Instead, Ann Laker, from Transport For London suggested most fans use the Metropolitan line instead of the slower bus service.
TFL have given the following advice:
- Coming into Victoria
Take the Victoria Line to King’s Cross and then the Metropolitan line to Wembley Park station,
Or the District or Circle lines to get to Embankment station, change to the Bakerloo line and go all the way to Wembley Central station,
- Coming into Cannon Street
Take the District or Circle lines to get to Embankment station, change to the Bakerloo line and go all the way to Wembley Central station,
Or take the District line to Victoria station and then the Victoria Line to King’s Cross and then the Metropolitan line to Wembley Park station
- Coming into Charing Cross Station
Take the Bakerloo line to Wembley Central station
- Coming into London Bridge
Take the Northern line to Moorgate station and then the Metropolitan line to Wembley Park station
- Coming into Waterloo East
Take the Bakerloo line to Wembley Central station
Parking is also available at other stations along the Metropolitan line but fans have been warned spaces will be extremely limited.
