GOOD afternoon and welcome along to my live blog coverage of this top end Sky Bet Championship clash between Millwall and Preston North End at The Den both sides currently sat in the play-offs with this match being the final one before the next scheduled international break.
HALF TIME – 1-1 at half time here at SE16 both sides looking shaky at the back as it was ultimately Iversen’s mistake that has cost Preston a lead going into half time. Millwall playing better out of the 2 sides so far having the home momentum on their side. Exciting second-half to come here in the capital.
