AI match recap
Millwall return to The Den looking to turn an encouraging but wasteful Swansea display into a response. Lincoln arrive depleted by two suspensions, long-term captain Tendayi Darikwa’s absence and the after-effects of a brutal midweek cup defeat. The home side have the stronger platform in territorial pressure and set-piece situations, while Lincoln’s best chance is a low-block performance followed by rapid counter-attacks through Ogbene. The key question is whether Millwall can convert their pressure before Lincoln settle into a resilient defensive rhythm.
Injuries and absences
Lincoln’s confirmed absences are structurally significant: Hamer and McGrandles must be replaced immediately, while Darikwa’s long-term absence removes leadership and defensive experience. Millwall’s missing players narrow their rotation options, but Lincoln face the more disruptive reshuffle through defence and central midfield.
