Preview: Millwall vs. Bolton Wanderers

Millwall vs. Bolton

Strugglers Millwall will be looking to secure three much-needed points when they host Bolton Wanderers in the Championship this weekend.

The Lions sit just three points clear of the league's relegation zone, having been held to a draw when they played Yeovil Town earlier this week.

Ian Holloway does not have any fresh injury concerns, but may look to rotate his squad with them having played a midweek fixture.

Ed Upson will be eligible to return, having sat out against his former club on his return to Huish Park on Tuesday evening as part of an agreement between the two clubs when he made his move to The Den last month.

Meanwhile, the Trotters head into the game on the back of defeat in their Lancashire derby clash with Burnley earlier this week.

Striker Jermaine Beckford is nearing a return from a hamstring injury, having been out for almost a month with the issue, but may need time on the bench before returning to the starting lineup.

Bolton will be hoping to take advantage of their opponents' poor form, having not won themselves since Boxing Day, a run that has seem them slide to 19th in the table.

When the sides met earlier in the season, it was Bolton that took all three points with a 3-1 victory at the Reebok Stadium.
