Millwall

Millwall's recent form presents a mixed picture, with the team experiencing a challenging run of three consecutive losses before bouncing back with a win in their latest League Cup match against Portsmouth. Despite their current 15th position in the league, it's worth noting that they've only played one Championship game so far this season. The team's goal-scoring record shows room for improvement, averaging just one goal per game across their last six matches, while conceding slightly more at 1.33 goals per game. Interestingly, their matches have been evenly split between high and low-scoring affairs, with 50% of games seeing over 2.5 goals. The 3-2 loss to Watford stands out as a particularly high-scoring encounter, suggesting Millwall can be involved in exciting matches despite their recent struggles.
