Recent form

Millwall

Millwall's recent form has been mixed, with the team currently sitting in 18th position in the league table, having accumulated 40 points from 36 games. They have experienced a run of three consecutive defeats, which was followed by two wins and a draw in their last three matches. It's worth noting that Millwall suffered a particularly heavy 4-0 loss against Ipswich during their losing streak. However, they have managed to bounce back with a 2-1 away victory against Southampton and a 1-0 home win against Watford. Despite their inconsistent form, Millwall's games have been relatively high-scoring, with an average of 2.5 total goals per match, and 50% of their games seeing both teams find the back of the net.

Birmingham City

Birmingham City's recent form has been inconsistent, with a mix of wins, draws, and losses in their last six Championship matches. They are currently sitting in 20th position in the league table, having collected 39 points from 35 games. The Blues have managed to secure two consecutive wins against Sunderland and Blackburn, but this was preceded by a three-game losing streak against Southampton, Ipswich, and Sheffield Wednesday. In terms of goal-scoring, Birmingham's recent 3-4 defeat to Southampton stands out as a particularly high-scoring game, contributing to their average of 3.17 total goals per game over the last six matches. Despite this, the team has struggled to keep clean sheets, with only one in their previous six outings.

Recent home/away form

Millwall

Millwall's recent home form has been disappointing, with four losses in their last six matches at The Den. They are currently on a run of three consecutive home defeats in the Championship, including a heavy 4-0 loss to Ipswich. However, they did manage to end this losing streak with a narrow 1-0 victory over Watford in their most recent home game. Millwall's home matches have been relatively high-scoring, with an average of 3 goals per game, and 50% of their games featuring over 2.5 goals. Despite this, they have struggled to find the back of the net consistently, scoring only 5 goals in their last 6 home games.

Birmingham City

Birmingham's away form has been poor recently, with a run of four consecutive defeats before managing a draw in their latest match against Hull City. During this six-game period, they have struggled to find the back of the net consistently, scoring just 4 goals at a rate of 0.67 per game. Defensively, they have conceded 11 goals, an average of 1.83 per game, highlighting their vulnerability at the back. Two of their away losses have been particularly high-scoring affairs, with a 3-1 defeat to Ipswich and a 3-0 loss to Leicester in the FA Cup. Birmingham's overall away form leaves much to be desired, as they currently sit in 20th position in the league with 39 points from 35 games.
