Millwall duo not being ruled out of making first-team return at Rotherham United

Millwall manager Gary Rowett has not ruled Mason Bennett or Shaun Hutchinson out of featuring at Rotherham United on Wednesday night.

Bennett has been out with a major hamstring injury since the 3-2 win over Coventry City in August.

But the former Derby County attacker has been named in Kevin Nugent’s U21 team for their match against Bristol City this afternoon.

Hutchinson sustained a groin injury in the 2-0 win over Cardiff City.

Both were back training last week but were not involved on Saturday as the Lions lost 2-1 to Blackburn Rovers.

“They had missed quite a bit of football and I didn’t want to put them on the bench over people who are 100 per cent fit,” Rowett told the South London Press.

“They’ll come into the reckoning again on Wednesday. Benno is playing some minutes today for the U23s. It’s important that with those who have missed a lot of football, had a very sporadic season so far. We want to really work hard to make sure they come back and stay back.”
