Match Preview
Millwall enters this contest in solid form, having picked up 10 points from their last 5 fixtures. Alex Neil has his side playing with high energy, averaging 2 points per game recently. The atmosphere at The Den will surely be intimidating tonight.
Femi Azeez and Mihailo Ivanovic are the main men for the Lions, both having scored 7 goals this season. Ivanovic currently averages 0.27 goals per 90 minutes. They will be crucial if Millwall wants to break down a stubborn defense.
The hosts are missing several key figures though. Players like Luongo and Smallbone are out with hamstring injuries, which might leave the midfield a bit light. Still, they have managed to score in each of their last 8 league games.
Birmingham City is enjoying a fantastic spell under Chris Davies, remaining unbeaten in their last 8 matches. Their away form has also improved, with the side not losing on their travels in 4 games. They look very difficult to beat.
Jay Stansfield is the leading threat for the visitors with 9 goals this term. Marvin Ducksch is another threat, averaging a goal every other game with 0.5 per 90 minutes. However, the team is missing Paik due to a shoulder injury.
Statistically, the Blues have seen
August Priske’s first Championship start for Birmingham City showcased a physical "weapon" the club has lacked for years. The 6ft 4in striker dominated Norwich City aerially, offering Chris Davies a direct outlet to bypass the press. Drawing comparisons to a prime Lukas Jutkiewicz, Priske’s mobility and presence in the box provide a new dimension to the Blues’ attack, making him a significant threat to opposition defenders.
Birmingham City enters this match with incredible momentum, having avoided defeat in their last 8 league outings. They have shown great resilience on the road, going unbeaten in 4 consecutive away fixtures. While Millwall is strong at 3rd, their extensive injury list including key men like Luongo and Smallbone might hinder them. A 1-1 or 0-0 draw seems highly probable in this London battle.
Statistically, the visitors concede only 4.25 corners per away game, showing they do not allow much pressure. Although they only score 0.81 goals on average away, their 58% BTTS rate suggests they usually find a way to contribute. Given Millwall concedes 1.13 goals at home, the Blues have a clear path to a result. Backing the double chance covers most outcomes tonight.
