Millwall could be without star man Femi Azeez when they travel to Birmingham City on Tuesday. Blues entertain fourth-placed Millwall at St Andrew's after sticking four past Portsmouth in their most convincing Championship display to date on Saturday. The Lions have taken 13 points from their last five games under Alex Neil but their winning run was halted by Oxford United. The U's snatched a point from Millwall courtesy of a last-gasp goal from ex-Blues loanee Przemyslaw Placheta. Azeez, who has recorded four goals and two assists in eight league appearances, had to be substituted in the first half at the weekend with a hamstring injury. Right-back Ryan Leonard was later withdrawn in stoppage time, meaning Millwall could be without their first choice right side against Blues. “The severity of the injuries, I’m not quite sure,” Lions boss Neil said. “I don’t know. Femi’s seems to be a hamstring. Lenny seems to be a calf. “We’ve battled this all season, haven’t we? In terms of losing bodies and having to then try and find a way to win the next one. “It’s really disappointing because Femi’s been brilliant for us. Lenny’s been excellent for us as well. “So if they are out for any length of time, yeah, it naturally makes it difficult to win games because if they’re fit and available, they play in the team. The more first-team regulars that you lose, the more difficult it is at this level. “Our record at the moment has been very, very good. We just want to try and give ourselves the best chance at picking up as many points as we can.”
