Millwall Team Overview
Millwall have had an inconsistent start to the season - their last five matches have brought two wins and three defeats. Across ten games they have won five, lost four and drawn one, which reflects their position outside the leading group. Over that period they average 1.5 goals scored and 1.5 conceded per match; across the season as a whole the figures are slightly higher at 1.86 both scored and conceded, suggesting a tendency towards open play with chances at both ends.
Their league objective is to close a four-point gap to the automatic promotion places, so they have reason to push for points even against a stronger opponent.
