Millwall go to Bristol City on Sunday afternoon (1.30pm) looking for their first away win of the season.
As this game takes place a day later than the other Championship games, Millwall know they could start the day in the bottom three. A point for either Bolton or Hull on Saturday will see The Lions drop into the relegation places ahead of kick off.
All that is keeping the South Londoners out of the drop zone at present is goal difference. And they head to Bristol looking for a first away win in the league since April. Neil Harris has stated that he “expects” his team to go out and win games away from home. Starting on Sunday.
Manager Neil Harris will be forced into a least one change as record signing Ryan Leonard is suspended. He will miss the game after being sent off against Birmingham on Wednesday night. Leonard, received two bookings inside eight minutes as Millwall fell to their tenth defeat of the season.
That paves the way for Ryan Tunnicliffe to start for the first time since September 1. He performed well when coming off the bench on Wednesday night and will partner Shan Williams in midfield.
Lee Gregory came off with tightness in his stomach and groin area, he will be assessed and is a doubt. Shaun Hutchinson also came off with a cut but he should be fine and make the starting 11. Neil Harris said after Wednesday’s defeat that he wasn’t sure on both players but hoped they’d be fit for Sunday.
Tom Bradshaw and Tom Elliott are both ruled out so Neil Harris may be forced to start Aiden O’Brien and Steve Morison up front.
Predicted Millwall team to face Bristol City:
Archer; Romeo, Hutchinson, Cooper, Meredith; J Wallace, Williams, Tunniclffie, Ferguson; O’Brien, Morison
