Millwall Preview – Can the Lions end woeful run?
Millwall are one of several clubs with play-off ambitions. However, their top-six hopes have been dealt a big blow after three straight losses and five defeats from their last seven Championship games. The Lions have slipped down to 15th, 11 points away from sixth-place Huddersfield Town.
Since a 1-0 win at Coventry City on 29th December, Millwall have lost three in a row in the league. They were beaten 3-2 at Bristol City before suffering back-to-back 1-0 losses to Nottingham Forest and Blackpool.
After falling well off the pace in the hunt for a top-six spot, Millwall will be desperate to get back on track, starting with a positive result on Saturday. However, they are the 14/5 second favourites to get the win.
West Bromwich Albion Preview – Will the Baggies bounce back with a big three points?
West Bromwich Albion slipped up again in midweek, this time losing 2-0 at home to Preston North End. The Baggies were toothless against the Lilywhites, and their form over the past six weeks or so has been poor.
After back-to-back victories over Coventry and Reading at the start of December, things were starting to look up again for the Baggies. Unfortunately for them, Valerien Ismael’s troops have gone on to win just one of their following six, suffering three defeats along the way.
