The Fitness Test
Manager Paul Heckingbottom said that PNE have been “looking after something” with Stefán Thórdarson, however he’s not expected to miss this fixture.
One man who won’t be available, though, is Sam Greenwood, following his red card against Blackburn Rovers on Sunday.
Will Keane, who missed the draw against Middlesbrough and victory over Fulham, returned to the matchday squad at the weekend and will again be part of the team travelling to the Den.
The Lions
Millwall have matched PNE’s start to the season, picking up five points from the first six matches of the campaign.
Having gone through three managers last term, the Lions will be hoping for more stability this season under club legend Neil Harris, who was appointed boss for the second time in February 2024 and comfortably kept them in the second tier.
In Duncan Watmore, Millwall have the division’s second-highest goalscorer, with the forward having netted five times already this season.
The Officials
Referee: Darren Bond
Assistant Referees: Derek Eaton and Steven Meredith
Fourth Official: Charles Breakspear
Darren Bond will referee Saturday’s clash, which will be his first PNE match since February 2023 when the Lilywhites lost at Turf Moor.
Before that, though, came good victories on the road with Bond in the middle, including wins over Hull City, Nottingham Forest and Derby County.
The referee has taken charge of three matches so far this season, including two Premier League ties, and he’s shown 12 yellow cards in those games.
