Millwall vs Fulham Prediction & Betting tips
As early as Christmas, there was much to suggest that West Bromwich Albion and Leeds United, two teams, would march confidently towards the Premier League. The two former first division clubs were eleven and eight points ahead of the toughest pursuers and found themselves in a comfortable starting position for the rest of the season.
In the meantime, however, the upholstery is almost completely used up. The “Baggies” are still in first place, but there are only four points behind third. The Fulham Football Club in particular is coming closer and closer and is aiming for an immediate return to the Oberhaus just one year after the relegation.
The highly anticipated London derby between Millwall and Fulham will take place on Wednesday evening. A look at the odds reveals that bookmakers expect a balanced duel at eye level. A clear favorite cannot be determined, even though the “Cottagers” of course take the short trip away with a lot of confidence after 13 points from the last five games.
Nevertheless, the task in “The Den” promises to be a difficult one for the team of coach Scott Parker, because the home side also play a very decent season, in which only eight of 31 matches were lost.
The significantly better shape and the qualitative advantages on the part of the “Whites” nevertheless lead between Millwall and Fulham to a prognosis in favor of the ambitious guests, who have now caught up with Leeds United (2nd) in the classification.
Millwall:
Millwall Football Club officials will be very pleased with their team’s performance so far. After the “Lions” narrowly escaped relegation to third place in the past season as 21st, even the playoffs seem within reach this season.
At the moment, the blue-whites, who have remained the same to this day in the style of Scottish workers who founded the association in 1885, are in respectable ninth place. Kickers from south London missed five points in sixth position, which, as we know, would entitle them to take part in the promotion round.
By the way, the team of coach Gary Rowett has thrown away an even better starting position in the past few weeks, because the shape curve of the capital club is rather descending. Only one of the most recent five games in the championship was able to win the lions. There were also two division of points and two defeats, which came against West Brom (1st) and Leeds (2nd). Is the next bankruptcy threatening an absolute top team?
The fact that the blue and whites have only lost eight games this season speaks against this. At home, the “Lions” only lost three times. With 0: 2 at the weekend against West Brom it became clear, however, that the Rowett-Elf is currently not in an offensive mood to land surprises. In three of the past six games, the team led by top scorer Jed Wallace (ten goals, eight assists) did not score a single goal.
Because the club from London-Bermondsey, which had previously been considered a relegation candidate for many experts, has performed above its own capabilities in the course of the season so far, but has recently been unable to maintain the high level (only two wins in 2020), the tip is between Millwall and Fulham Guest associated with quite an attractive value. Ryan Leonard, Ben Thompson and Frank Fielding are injured. Otherwise, the coach can draw on the full.
Fulham :
Fulham is in top shape. No other second division team has scored more points than the “Cottagers” on the last seven matchdays. Of a possible 21 points, the Londoners recorded 16 on the credit side and thus climbed rank by rank in the ranking.
At the moment the third place is for the “Whites”, who have already caught up with the second-placed Leeds United on points. It is therefore all the more surprising that before the Millwall encounter with Fulham, odds of 2.50 in the top are still being offered for a Parker-Elf return to the Premier League.
However, the capital city club was not influenced by this at all. Four of the recent five championship games have been victorious. A 3-2 home win against Huddersfield Town was followed by a 1-0 win at Blackburn over the weekend. In general, the Londoners are rather minimalistic, which has been statistically impressively underlined by four 1-0 victories since December 29.
The showpiece of Scott Parker’s team is clearly the defensive, which only conceded 32 goals after 31 games. In five of the last seven matches, keeper Rodak kept his clean sheet. Only Reading, Huddersfield Town, ManCity and Aston Villa have so far been able to celebrate a goal against the “Lilywhites” this calendar year.
In the front, the ambitious aspirant for promotion relies on striker Aleksandar Mitrovic, who leads the top scorer list in the second-highest English league with 20 meetings despite a long injury break.
The beefy Serb is definitely a difference player who on Wednesday evening between Millwall and Fulham favors the prediction for the guest who lost last away in mid-December. Except Le Marchand and Reed, all professionals are ready to go!
