Recent form

Millwall

Millwall's recent form has been concerning, with the team currently sitting in 22nd position in the Championship after collecting just one point from their first three league games. Their last six matches across all competitions show a worrying trend, with four losses, one draw, and only one win. The team has struggled defensively, conceding 9 goals in these six games, with a high-scoring 4-3 defeat to Bristol City standing out. Despite the defensive issues, Millwall has managed two clean sheets in this period. Their attack has been inconsistent, scoring 6 goals but failing to find the net in three of the six matches. The team's current run of three games without a win (LLDL) in their last four outings is a cause for concern, especially considering their poor start to the league campaign.

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday's recent form shows a mixed bag of results, with 3 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in their last 6 games. The team has been particularly impressive in cup competitions, securing two high-scoring victories in the League Cup, including a resounding 5-1 win against Grimsby in their most recent match. However, their league form has been less consistent, with a 4-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle sandwiched between two consecutive losses in the Championship. The Owls have shown a propensity for high-scoring games, with 67% of their matches featuring over 2.5 goals and an average of 3.17 total goals per game. Their attack has been potent, scoring 11 goals in 6 games (1.83 per game), but their defense has also been vulnerable, conceding 8 goals (1.33 per game). Despite this, they've managed to keep 2 clean sheets, highlighting their defensive capabilities when at their best.

Recent home/away form

Millwall

Millwall's recent home form has been concerning, with the team experiencing a notable four-game losing streak in their last four matches at The Den. This run includes defeats in competitive fixtures against Leyton Orient in the League Cup and Watford in the Championship, as well as losses in two pre-season friendlies. Their last positive result at home was a goalless draw against Bromley in a friendly, followed by a narrow 1-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle in their final home game of the previous Championship season. The team has struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only three goals in their last six home games, while conceding six. Defensively, they've managed two clean sheets during this period, but the lack of offensive output is evident with 83% of these games seeing under 2.5 goals scored.

Sheffield Wednesday

Sheffield Wednesday's recent away form presents a mixed picture, with notable highs and lows. The team has shown impressive goal-scoring ability in some matches, particularly in their 5-1 victory over Grimsby in the League Cup, which stands out as their highest-scoring game. However, they've also suffered heavy defeats, conceding four goals each in losses to Sunderland and Red Bull Salzburg. Their last six away games have resulted in three wins, one draw, and two losses, indicating inconsistent form. The high number of goals in their matches is noteworthy, with 83% of games featuring over 2.5 goals and an average of 3.83 total goals per game. Despite these high-scoring affairs, Sheffield Wednesday has managed only one clean sheet in their last six away games, suggesting defensive vulnerabilities on the road.
