View Crawley Town v AFC Wimbledon head to head
This single Preliminary round tie was required due to holders Birmingham City having qualified for the UEFA Europa League but also being relegated, plus an extra UEFA Europa League place being awarded to Fulham through the Fair Play league.
A similar situation occurred in 2002-03 when Ipswich Town's participation in the UEFA Cup left an odd number of clubs in the Worthington Cup's First round.
The single tie played on 20 August 2002 was Bristol Rovers versus Boston United.
