Millwall: an open style of play
In their most recent Championship match, Millwall won 1-0 away at Preston North End. With shot counts fairly even, the visitors had the better of it on shots on target - 3 to 1 - and also led on expected goals, 1.26 to 0.71.
Millwall have won four of their last ten matches, losing the same number, with two draws. In the last five games, they have lost twice, won once and drawn twice. Their average over that ten-match spell is 1.5 goals scored per game and 1.6 conceded, suggesting an open style without a clear emphasis on either defence or attack.

⭐ Editor's Prediction
The case for Total Goals - Over 2.5 is supported by Millwall's high scoring rate at home (an average of more than one and a half goals) and the fact that seven of their last eight matches have gone over on goals. Swansea's solid defence does not prevent them from playing with enough attacking intent - the average figures for both sides support the likelihood of at least three goals in the match, even accounting for the early stage of the season and the teams' moderate league motivation. The editor's main prediction is Total Goals - Over 2.5. Predicted score: 1-2.
