Millwall v Blackburn team line-ups: Top-scorer Gregory on bench for Lions as three changes made

BY RICHARD CAWLEY

Millwall are boosted by the return of Lee Gregory for this evening’s late Championship kick-off against Blackburn Rovers – with their leading scorer fit enough to be named as a substitute.

Lions manager Neil Harris makes three changes with Shaun Hutchinson, James Meredith and Shane Ferguson all starting – Murray Wallace, Alex Pearce and Jiri Skalak making way. The latter does not even make the matchday 18.

Ben Thompson, recalled from his loan at Portsmouth, is also on the bench. But there is no spot for Fred Onyedinma, also brought back from his temporary spell away at Wycombe Wanderers.

Millwall: Archer, Romeo, Hutchinson, Cooper, Meredith, Ferguson, Leonard, Tunnicliffe, J Wallace, Elliott, O’Brien. Subs: Martin, Williams, Thompson, Gregory, Pearce, Morison, M Wallace.

Blackburn Rovers: Raya, Reed, Rodwell, Bell, Dack, Nuttall, Lenihan, Travis, Evans, Bennett, Conway. Subs: Leutwiler, Nyambe, Armstrong, Rothwell, Graham, Brereton, Butterworth.
