Managed by disgraced former Reading boss Mark McGhee, the visit of Millwall is sure to provide a fiery atmosphere at the Madjeki Stadium tomorrow.

Ricky Newman and Adie Williams could both be forced to miss the game through injury, however both are expected to be passed fit to play.
Nicky Shorey will continue at left-back after scoring his first ever career goal against the Bantams. Nicky Forster will retain his place up front despite missing numerous chances and a penalty during Tuesday's clash.
