Manager Neil Harris has said he’s relishing the chance to go against a big test like Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink’s Burton Albion tonight.

Burton could of course go to the top of League One should they secure victory this evening, but with that challenge and the fact victory for Millwall could lift us into the Play Off positions it’s a game the gaffer is looking forward to.

Speaking to the official site in his pre game press conference, he explained ahead of the first ever meeting between the two sides.

‘Jimmy has put together a very hard-working, well organised and well drilled Burton team. On top of their strong work ethic they have some real quality players in their squad so we know how big a test it is going to be going up there. But it is a challenge that we are very much looking forward to and I’m keen to see how the players respond to what happened in the last away game.’

Of course with defeat to Fleetwood Town but a solid reaction against Bury, Harris wants to see what kind of run we can possibly put together now.

‘After Fleetwood I challenged the players to show a response against Bury and they did exactly that by putting in an outstanding performance and picking up what was a very good win. But now we have to get back to winning ways away from home against a Burton team who will want to go top of the table on Tuesday night. We will make sure that the boys are fully prepared for what they will bring to the table but it is also down to us to make the most of our strengths and cause them as many problems as possible.’

Kick off at the Pirelli Stadium in 7.45pm tonight.
