A Terry Devlin brace and a penalty from Colby Bishop helped the Blues to victory over Charlton in midweek after a stellar performance at The Valley.

The second of 3 consecutive away games awaits now as we go to The Den to take on Millwall.

MANAGER

Former Norwich City, Preston North End, Sunderland and Stoke City boss Alex Neil is in the dugout for The Lions.

The 44-year-old took charge of the club in December 2024 and has so far won 31 of his 62 matches in charge - Accruing a 50% win rate.

ONE TO WATCH

Midfielder and makeshift wing-back Alfie Doughty is our ‘One To Watch’ this weekend.

The Millwall number 14 has been crucial for the club filling in at the back of late but also poses a big threat down the right-hand side of the field, Pompey’s left as they view it defensively.

His movement forward will be something the Blues will need to be on top of.

Both Femi Azeez (pictured) and Mihailo Ivanovic have netted 7 goals this season.

Azeez, who wears the number 11, predominantly plays on the right-hand side of the midfield in front of our ‘One To Watch’, Alfie Doughty.

Ivanovic is a Serbian striker who fronts the squad number 9.

CURRENT FORM

The Lions are currently sat 3rd in the Championship, having won 16, drawn 8 and lost 8 of their 32 league matches thus far.

Millwall are also unbeaten in their last 4, winning 3 and drawing the other, and have only lost 1 of their previous 10 league games.

The reverse of this fixture at Fratton Park back in November saw the Blues victorious by 3 goals to 1, thanks to strikes from Zak Swanson, Adrian Segečić and Jordan Williams.

Can John Mousinho’s side do the double over another South London outfit?
