Sheffield United hope to keep up their steady rise when they travel to Millwall for their next Championship match. With a game in hand, Sheffield sit 17th, while their hosts are fifth. Read on to find our prediction for the match.
Millwall bounced back in resounding fashion in their last outing, beating Charlton Athletic 4-0. It was a needed response after their top six credentials came into question following a 2-1 loss to Coventry earlier.
Three wins in their last four matches have largely contributed to the Lions maintaining a six-point buffer from the side sitting seventh. More than half of their points this season came in home matches and they’ll be confident going into this one.
Sheffield United have recovered from their slow start to the season and will be targeting three points here. They secured an important win last time out, beating automatic promotion contenders Ipswich Town.
The Blades cut through the Tractor Boys, winning 3-1 to bring to a halt a three-match losing run. That victory saw them open up a six-point buffer from the bottom three.
For a side that reached the playoffs last season, Sheffield is targeting another top-six finish. They don’t have the away form to support that, though. In their 15 away league matches, Sheffield lost 10.
