Alex Pearce back in contention for Millwall

Millwall will have Alex Pearce available again when they face Preston in the Championship on Saturday.

The on-loan defender sat out the midweek win over his parent club Derby and boss Neil Harris now has a decision to make after Shaun Hutchinson impressed in his place.

Northern Ireland defender Conor McLaughlin will once again miss out with a quad injury.

Striker Tom Bradshaw remains a long-term absentee with a knee problem, though it is hoped he can play again this season.

Preston have no new injury concerns and with his side unbeaten in their last seven outings, Alex Neil will be in no rush to make unnecessary changes.

Neil has praised the attitude of his second string after watching the reserves hand out thrashings in recent weeks but that does not mean he is ready to tinker with a winning formula.

Strikers Callum Robinson and Louis Moult remain sidelined with hamstring problems, but are closing in on a return to training.

Goalkeeper Connor Ripley remains out with an ankle injury, while midfielders Billy Bodin and Josh Harrop (both ACL) are still sidelined.
