Millwall Vs Newcastle Preview
Despite their 4-0 win over Bolton on Saturday, Millwall have a worryingly long injury list to contend with. A number of first team stars are ruled out for Tuesday’s clash so a number of fringe players are expected to fill the void. At home this season, the Lions beat Norwich and the Trotters but suffered a 3-0 defeat to Wrexham last week.
On MD3, Newcastle drew 2-2 with Bournemouth after going two goals sown at St James’ Park. Recently appointed manager Matthias Jaissle has made a solid start to life in the North East and will be keen to get a strong cup run under his belt with no European football to contend with.
