Peterborough United Preview – Posh to crash to another defeat?
Peterborough United were promoted from EFL League One last season, finishing runners-up to Hull City. Staying in the Championship has always been the priority, but Posh have had a tough time so far.
Peterborough have picked up just four wins from 21 Championship games, drawing four and losing 13 of the other 17. No team in the division have suffered more defeats, while just Barnsley have claimed fewer victories. United are in the bottom three at present, five points away from safety.
Since back-to-back wins over Hull and Queens Park Rangers in October, Darren Ferguson’s boys are winless in seven, taking just two points from a possible 21. This will be another tough one for the strugglers.
Millwall Preview – Will the Lions build on Birmingham win?
Gary Rowett’s Millwall are having a fine season. The Lions moved up to eighth after last weekend’s results, just four points away from sixth-place Stoke City. After four games without a win, the Lions beat Birmingham City 3-1 at The Den last time out.
Millwall have been tough to beat this term, with just Fulham, Cardiff City, Luton Town, Huddersfield Town and Hull getting the better of them in Championship action. On the flip side, only bottom club Derby County have drawn more.
