MILLWALL know that a win against Blackburn Rovers this afternoon will secure a place in the play-offs.
The Lions’ season will be extended by at least two games if they pick up points, but a draw will leave them relying on results elsewhere. Sunderland are at Preston North End and West Brom are playing away at Swansea City.
Charlie Cresswell [eye], Murray Wallace [groin] and George Honeyman [hamstring] are all ruled out for today’s clash.
Team news
Millwall make two changes from the team that beat Blackpool 3-2 at Bloomfield Road.
George Long keeps his place in goal but the Lions switch back to a back four. Danny McNamara comes in at right-back for Jamie Shackleton, with Shaun Hutchinson and Jake Cooper remaining at centre-back with Callum Styles on the left.
Billy Mitchell continues his partnership in midfield with George Saville but Millwall make one change in attack, with Ryan Leonard dropping out of the squad to be replaced by Oliver Burke. George Evans moves onto the bench.
Millwall: 4-2-3-1: Long; McNamara, Hutchinson, Cooper, Styles; Mitchell, Saville; Burke, Flemming, Watmore; Bradshaw
Substitutes: Bialkowski, Evans, Malone, Burey, Shackleton, Bennett, Voglsammer
