Fourteen long years. That’s how long we’ve waited — since February 2012 — for West Ham and Millwall to meet again. Today we travel across the river to The Den, heads held high, with one mission: bring the pride home.
This isn’t just a game. It’s our heritage. And today, we mean business.

Jarrod Bowen leads as captain — the heartbeat of this club
