Important games during the Championship's promotion run-in should be played at the same time, according to Millwall boss Alex Neil. The Lions are fourth in the table, two points behind second-placed Middlesbrough who they visit on Friday (12:30 BST) but Neil feels kicking-off before their other promotion rivals gives them an advantage. Millwall's next four fixtures all kick-off before many of their fellow promotion chasers which Neil feels should be avoided. "We should do our utmost to keep the games played at the same time on the same day so no-one's got an advantage going into each match." Listen to more Millwall interviews and content on BBC Sounds.
