MILLWALL will host Gary Rowett’s former side Stoke City on the opening day of the 2020-21 Championship season on September 12.
The fixtures were released at 9am on Friday morning – with the Lions travelling to newly-promoted Rotherham United in their first away game of the campaign seven days later.
Luton at home on October 20 could see a return of some fans inside The Den, whilst Millwall face beaten play-off finalists Brentford in their opening London derby of the season in their final match of September, with the return fixture on April 17 marking the Lions’ first visit to the Brentford Community Stadium.
Rowett’s men face a testing festive period – with Bournemouth away on Boxing Day before hosting another relegated side, Watford, three days later.
Millwall end their campaign with a second trip to St Andrew’s, but this time against Coventry City.
