The Story in 60 Seconds

Millwall striker Josh Coburn believes the club will soon rediscover its best form as injured players return to fitness. Coburn made his return as a substitute during Tuesday's 3-0 defeat at Birmingham City after being limited to just six appearances so far this season. The 23-year-old forward expressed confidence that the squad can bounce back and replicate the positive results they achieved in the previous campaign.

Head coach Alex Neil has faced an extensive injury list, missing key players including Tristan Crama, Casper De Norre, Mihailo Ivanovic, Ryan Leonard, and Massimo Luongo. The Lions currently sit 13th in the Championship table, having won five of their opening 14 league matches. Despite the slow start, Millwall remains only five points outside the division's play-off positions ahead of Saturday's match against West Bromwich Albion.
