West Brom v Millwall team line-ups: Lions make one change for crucial Championship match
Millwall manager Gary Rowett has made one change for today’s Championship match at West Bromwich Albion.
The Lions boss has opted to bring Duncan Watmore into his starting line-up with Andreas Voglsammer dropping to the bench.
The Baggies have a hugely impressive home record with 10 wins in an 11-game unbeaten streak on home turf – conceding just one goal in that period.
Millwall are aiming for their first league double over West Bromwich Albion since the 2001-20 season but the hosts are undefeated in their last four matches against them in the West Midlands, winning two and drawing two.
Since November no side has won more home points in the Championship than Carlos Corberan’s West Brom (28).
Millwall are once again missing Billy Mitchell, Mason Bennett and Tyler Burey, none of whom make Gary Rowett’s matchday 18.
The Lions could finish the day as high as fifth in the standings or drop as low as eighth, with Norwich City and Coventry City both able to move ahead of them if they win and the South Londoners fail to bring anything back to the capital.
Jed Wallace starts against his former club.
West Bromwich Albion: Griffiths, Furlong, Townsend, Ajayi, Pieters, Wallace, Swift, Reach, Thomas-Asante, Chalobah, Yokuslu. Subs: Button, Bartley, Rogic, Livermore, Dike, Albrighton, Gardner-Hickman.
Millwall: Long, McNamara, Cresswell, Cooper, Wallace, Saville, Leonard, Watmore, Flemming, Honeyman, Bradshaw. Subs: Bialkowski, Hutchinson, Burke, Malone, Shackleton, Voglsammer, Esse.
