    MIllwall welcome Hull City to The Den on Saturday (15:00 GMT) seeking a first win in five, and a first under Alex Neil in the Championship.

    The Lions are 14th and now 11 points adrift of the play-off places, with a seven-point gap to the third-bottom Tigers in the final relegation place.

    The Tigers ended a five-match losing streak on their travels with a win last time out at Blackburn, while they pinched a point at home to Leeds in their most recent home game.

    • Millwall have failed to win any of their past five league games against Hull City (D3 L2), failing to score in four of those matches. The London outfit last endured a longer such run against the Tigers between January 1967 and January 1970 (six games).

    • Hull City have won just two of their 26 away league games against Millwall (D10 L14), drawing on five of their past six EFL visits to The Den (L1).

    • Millwall have won just one of their past 11 league games (D5 L5), though that did come at home to Blackburn in December; in fact, only Plymouth (100%) have seen a greater proportion of their total Championship wins this season come at home than the Lions (86% - 6/7).

    • Hull City have picked up eight points from their seven league games under manager Rubén Sellés (W2 D2 L3), more than across their 12 Championship matches prior (6 - W1 D3 L8).

    • Hull's Abu Kamara scored twice last time out against Leeds United, as many goals as he netted across his previous 32 league appearances for the Tigers and Portsmouth combined; he has never scored in back-to-back league outings

    Hull City's new signing Joe Gelhardt is expected to be part of the squad for the Tigers trip to Millwall on Saturday (12:30 GMT).

    Midfielder Matt Crooks could also make his debut after missing out on Hull's FA Cup defeat to Doncaster Rovers on the weekend as he organised the move from the US to Yorkshire.

    Meanwhile, midfielder Steven Alzate and defender Finley Burns are fit and available for the weekend after being substituted off in the tie against Doncaster.

    As is midfielder Gustavo Puerta following a knock at the end of the match on Saturday, while defender Matty Jacob has returned to training and may also make the trip.

    Union Berlin loanee Chris Bedia is still training with the team and could feature amid rumours that he will be leaving the club following the arrival of Gelhardt from Leeds United.

    However, midfielder Abdulkadir Omur is suffering with a knee injury and will be out for the next three games.

    Brandon Fleming has had five loan spells away from Hull City

    Hull City have recalled defender Brandon Fleming from his season-long loan with League Two Doncaster Rovers.

    The 25-year-old has made 17 EFL appearances for the promotion-chasing South Yorkshire side since joining them in August.

    Doncaster visit Hull City in the FA Cup third round on Sunday but Fleming will not be able to play for his parent club as he is cup-tied, having featured for Rovers in their first-round win at Barrow in November.

    The left-back came through the Tigers academy and has made a total of 45 appearances in all competitions for the Championship club.
