Wolverhampton Wanderers' charge towards the upper reaches of the Championship is in good stead to continue as they lead Millwall 1-0 at the interval.
The Lions were quick off the starting blocks, with Lee Gregory and Scott McDonald causing Wolves some early problems, but the visitors looked dangerous on the counter-attack.
Kenny Jackett's side took the lead in the 23rd minute following a corner, the ball sailing through a sea of bodies before falling kindly for Danny Batth, who hit home at the far post.
Millwall had the chance to level the match moments after the restart through a corner of their own, which Richard Chaplow directed towards goal, forcing a good save out of Carl Ikeme.
The home supporters appealed for a penalty when Gregory tumbled in the area shortly before half time, but the referee waved away Millwall's protests and the Lions went into the break with nothing to show for their efforts.
