Millwall captain Tony Craig to miss Colchester clash

Millwall captain Tony Craig will miss Saturday's League One match at home to Colchester with a knee injury.

Craig is expected to be out for the rest of the season after the defender sustained ligament damage in his left knee during a draw with Bradford last month.

Fellow defender Carlos Edwards is a doubt with a hamstring strain and midfielder Nadjim Abdou is definitely out with a collar bone injury.

Millwall have climbed to ninth in the table and are currently unbeaten in eight matches in all competitions.

Colchester manager Tony Humes could make changes at the New Den as he looks to avoid a third straight league defeat.

Fit-again defender George Elokobi came off the bench for the 3-1 home reverse to Coventry and is pressing for a recall to the starting XI.

Forward Gavin Massey, recently back from a calf problem, could also feature following another run-out against the Sky Blues, while club captain Chris Porter, fit from a knee injury, was an unused substitute.

Midfielders Owen Garvan (hip) and Darren Ambrose (toe) were not available last week through injury. Full-back Richard Brindley (knee) is still sidelined.
