After their stalemate against Birmingham on Monday, Southampton returned to Championship action on Thursday, welcoming Millwall to St. Mary's Stadium. Can the Saints bounce back with a win against Millwall? Here is our prediction.

Cameron Archer's 71st-minute equalizer saved a point for Southampton at St. Andrews Stadium against Birmingham on Monday. They dominated their hosts, but fell short of the maximum three points. That result extended their winless run to four games (D2, L2) and saw them slip to 13th in the standings with 32 points – six points adrift of the top six.

Notably, Tonda Eckert's side boasted an efficient attack, scoring in their last 11 games, but have conceded in 10 of those. They have both scored and conceded in each of their last seven games, and most of their recent matches have produced high scorelines.

Millwall strengthened their bid for a play-off finish, leaping to fifth in the standings with 38 points after a 2–1 victory over Bristol City on Monday, thanks to Macaulay Langstaff's 55th-minute winner. That victory ended a four-game winless run for the Lions. They have conceded in four of their last five games, and in nine of their last 10 away fixtures, most of which produced at least three goals.

Our Southampton vs Millwall Prediction

Southampton have been terrific on the attack, scoring with reckless abandon, particularly when playing at home. However, they have struggled to keep things tight at the back, conceding in most of their games. Millwall are also struggling with poor defending despite their stronger overall results this season. 

Unsurprisingly, most of the two teams' recent games have been high-scoring affairs, producing at least three goals. Hence, we expect another goal-fest in Thursday's cracker. Our Southampton vs Millwall prediction is more than 2.5 goals.
