- Adam Barrett in temporary charge of Millwall following departure of Gary Rowett
- Blackburn are on a two-game winning streak
- Recommended bet: Blackburn to win

Championship action comes from The Den on Tuesday night when Millwall and Blackburn Rovers lock horns in South-East London.

Adam Barrett remains in temporary charge of the Lions following the departure of Gary Rowett, who recently left the club after four years in charge.

The 43-year-old Englishman drew 1-1 at Preston in his first game at the helm and he will be hoping to build on that performance at home to Blackburn.

Rovers have picked up recently, winning their last two matches, and they will be eager to take advantage of the managerial situation of their opponents.

Team news

Millwall remain without goalkeeper Matija Sarkic, centre-back Shaun Hutchinson and forward Kevin Nisbet due to injury.

Blackburn are also without shot-stopper Aynsley Pears, who has joined attackers Harry Leonard, Ryan Hedges and Sam Gallagher in the treatment room.

The stats

Millwall have won just one of their last five matches, but they are on a three-game unbeaten streak following one win and two draws.

The Lions’ home form has not been as strong as previous seasons, with just two victories picked up from their seven fixtures at The Den.

Blackburn have won their last two games and they ended a three-game losing run away from home in their last road outing, beating QPR 4-0.

Rovers did the double over Millwall last season, extending their unbeaten record against the Lions to six matches.

Prediction

Millwall’s decision to part ways with Rowett seems a harsh one given the work he has done over the last four years and his departure has created an unstable feel in the dugout.

Barrett may have got a draw against Preston in his first game in temporary charge, but it remains to be seen whether he can reignite the side and Blackburn will provide a stern test on Tuesday.

Rovers have picked up after a poor run of form with back-to-back victories and the manner in which they dispatched of QPR in their last away fixture is very pleasing.

Blackburn will see this as a great chance to take advantage of a Millwall ship without a captain.
