Millwall full back Scott Malone is expecting a big test from a Blackpool side he believes will be challenging for Premier League promotion again.

The Lions drew 2-2 on the final day of the season to the Tangerines, who rested several players for their ultimately unsuccessful play-off campaign – beaten by West Ham in the final.

“It is a big test,” Malone told London24. “They’re going to be up there again.

“They’ve been pushing for the Premier League.

“But pre-season has gone well and we’ve got more than enough to beat them.”
