Steve Morison's seventh goal in as many games helped Millwall get their play-off hunt back on track with a 2-0 victory over Bristol Rovers at The Den.
Morison broke the deadlock when he lifted David Martin's cross over centre-back Danny Coles before volleying past Mikkel Andersen.
Rovers' Mark Wright had a shot cleared off the line as Rovers looked to reply.
But when Morison's injury-time effort was parried by Andersen, Pat Baldwin could only turn into his own net.
