Henry misses out for Millwall

Millwall will be without James Henry for the FA Cup tie with south London neighbours AFC Wimbledon.

The on-loan winger has not been given permission to play in the competition by parent club Reading.

Another wideman, Chris Hackett, sat out training this week with a back injury but he is expected to be fit.

Centre-half Darren Ward, who has been out since September with a knee injury, is close to a return but Monday night will probably come to soon.

Ashley Grimes is fit after illness but fellow striker Gary Alexander is still sidelined by a heel problem.

Andy Frampton, Scott Barron (both ankle), Zak Whitbread (hip), Pat O'Connor and Ali Fuseini (both knee) are still on the casualty list.

AFC Wimbledon skipper Paul Lorrainne and midfielder Sam Hatton remain doubtful after battling a virus.

Both players will be involved in some light training this weekend but a decision on their fitness won't be taken until the last minute.

Strikers Jon Main and Danny Kedwell are expected to lead the Dons strike force after recovering well from thigh and groin injuries.

AFC Wimbledon stormed their way into the first round after beating fellow Blue Square Premiere opponents Crawley, 3-1, in the replay at Kingsmeadow.

The Dons, who sit 10th in the table, will be hoping to cause an upset at The Den with a result against the promotion chasing League One giants.
