Blackpool are on the road again today as they make the long and arduous trip down to the capital to face Millwall at The Den.

Millwall v Blackpool - live updates

Key Events

  • FT: Millwall 2-1 Blackpool
  • Seasiders look to get back to winning ways after midweek disappointment
  • Callum Wright out injured, Gary Madine serves final game of his suspension

Jerry Yates slips through Shayne Lavery but the Northern Irishman can only poke wide at full stretch.

The ball drops to Zian Flemming in the Blackpool box but he blazes over from 10 yards out.

Three minutes have been added on at the end of the first half.

Not a great half, but the Seasiders deserve to be level. Millwall have offered very little after opening the scoring from their first corner of the game.

Pool now need to capitalise on the anxiousness inside the stadium.

We’re back underway

Kenny Dougall gets the second-half started.

No changes for either side.

Theo Corbeanu skips past his marker down the right but takes too long to make his mind up and the chance goes begging.

The winger has certainly been a threat today though.

Zian Flemming turns and shoots low and hard into the bottom corner but Dan Grimshaw is equal to it.

Blackpool have a chance to break through Yates and Lavery, but the latter's pass is a poor one.

At the other end Marvin Ekpiteta gets a crucial touch on Benik Afobe's cross.

Theo Corbeanu delivers a dangerous deep cross but Shayne Lavery and Dom Thompson get in the way of one another.
