It will be Bentham’s second final appearance following his Wembley debut in the 2011 decider between Wigan and Leeds, and comes 15 months after he suffered a career-threatening injury.
“When I broke my leg last year it could realistically have been the end of my career,” Bentham said.
“I put in a lot of rehabilitation work during the off-season to recover and I’d like to just thank everyone in the game for their support, in particular our trainer Ian Mitchell whose encouragement and commitment has helped me to get back to full fitness.
“It’s been great to be back out in the middle so far this year and that makes it even more special to now be taking charge of my second Challenge Cup final.”
The video referee will be Ian Smith, of Oldham.
