Millwall head up the M1 as their quest for FA Cup glory continues with a third round replay at Derby County.

The Lions have new one injury doubt, with defender Tony Craig struggling with an ankle injury. If he fails a late fitness test Scott Barron will come into the squad.

Strikers Neil Harris and Gary Alexander are still ruled out with injury, which means Lewis Grabban is likely to partner the in-form Steve Morison up front.

Loan signing Liam Trotter, who joined Millwall from Ipswich last week, is ineligible.

The sides drew 1-1 when they met at The Den 10 days ago and Millwall manager Kenny Jackett is keen for his side to put together a good cup run, starting by dumping Nigel Clough's side out of the competition.

He said: "This is a terrific opportunity for us. I'm relishing it as a manager.

"We're still active in two competitions, but while the league is the most important, I'm looking forward to the cup tie and we want to stay in the competition as long as we possibly can."

Millwall (from): Forde, Sullivan, Frampton, Dunne, Smith, Bolder, Craig, Robinson, Ward, Martin, Hackett, Fuseini, Laird, Barron, Morison, Grabban, Schofield, Hackett, Grimes, Abdou, Price.

Venue: Pride Park

Kick-off: 7.45pm

Referee: David Foster
