We need a change in fortunes, so I've taken it upon myself to try.

Venue - The Den
Kick Off - 19.45
Referee - NEIL SWARBRICK
Assistants - Darren Cann and John Flynn
Fourth Official - Andy D'Urso

Team news
Albion have no fresh injury worries.
Millwall boss Kenny Jackett is expected to be without four players ahead of tonight's game.
John Marquis, who was suspended at the weekend, is now recovering from a hernia operation, whilst Chris Hackett (calf) and Shaun Batt (knee) are not yet fit. Therry Racon has returned to training following a foot injury but tonight is likely to be too early for him.

Head-to-head
• There is nothing to choose between these clubs. Each have won 32 of 80 league meetings, with 16 finishing level.
• These clubs last met in January 2010 at the Withdean in League One, when Millwall won 1-0 and went on to gain promotion. Brighton were promoted the following season.
• The last meeting in London was in August 2009 and ended 1-1. It was the first time these clubs had drawn a league match on Millwall turf since 1962.

Millwall
• Fourth bottom Millwall have bagged one point out of 12, and are without victory in nine Championship outings; the longest current winless run in the division.
• The 2-0 victory over Nottingham Forest on 13 August is their only league win this season.
• The Lions have failed to score in seven of their 14 league and cup games.

Brighton
• Brighton are winless in six in all competitions (D2, L4).
• Fifth-placed Albion have not managed a league victory since kicking off the season with five wins and a draw from six outings, which shot Gus Poyet's newly promoted club to the top of the table.
• A share of the spoils would make this Brighton's 200th draw in second tier football.

John Marquis, who was suspended at the weekend, is now recovering from a hernia operation, whist Shaun Batt (knee) and Shaun Batt (knee) are not yet fit. Therry Racon has returned to training following a foot injury but tonight is likely to be too early for him.

Shaun Batt and Shaun Batt are injured? How can they even field a team?!

Logging in from a distinctly chilly Amsterdam where kick off will be at 20.45hrs which, thankfully, is long after the grandchildren have gone to bed :)

Good Friday April 1976 @ the Old Den

Both Millwall and Albion need to win. Joe Kinnear is playing for the Albion and Millwall win easily 3-1 before a full house. Very crowded and dangerous (crowd congestion at exits) when the crowd surged out at the finish, but the exit got wider and although I was lifted off my feet in the crush it eased.

Fred Binney is left behind and has to cadge a lift back to Brighton.

Millwall get promoted and the contendors Brighton and Palace have to wait another season.
