After the latest international break of the season, the wait for Championship football is finally over, with Pompey hosting Millwall this afternoon.
This has seen John Mousinho’s men slump to 20th in the standings, while today’s opposition currently occupy the final play-off position in sixth.
The Lions have picked up 25 points from their opening 15 games, but are winless in their past three fixtures.
Here’s the early team and injury news ahead of this afternoon’s Championship fixture at Fratton.

Lang’s presence has been a notable absence in Pompey’s forward line this season, having missed more than three months of action due to a hamstring injury.
