Lomas set to make changes

Millwall manager Steve Lomas is set to shuffle his pack for the clash with Nottingham Forest.


Lomas hinted he would make changes following Saturday's 3-0 defeat at Leicester, with Andy Keogh, Lee Martin and Steve Morison all in contention for a start.


Nicky Bailey should return after missing out at the weekend through suspension, while on-loan Leicester striker Martyn Waghorn is available after being ineligible against his parent club.


Lomas has a doubt over Liam Trotter, who has missed the last two games with a groin problem.


Jamaal Lascelles' suspension has added to Nottingham Forest's defensive problems ahead of the trip.


Lascelles received his fifth yellow card of the season during the home defeat to Reading on Friday night and the academy product will serve a one-match ban at The Den. He joins fellow central defenders Kelvin Wilson (back) and Danny Collins (ankle) and full-back Chris Cohen (knee), all of who are long-term absentees, on the sidelines.


It may mean that Greg Halford, who is nearing a return to fitness after a recent injury, is brought back sooner than expected, although on-loan Chelsea midfielder Nathaniel Chalobah is capable of playing at centre-half.


Andy Reid could start after making his return from a hamstring injury as a substitute against Reading while fellow midfielder David Vaughan is also nearing full fitness after a knock.
