Recent form
Millwall
Millwall's recent form has been inconsistent, with only one win in their last six games across all competitions. Their league position of 18th reflects this struggle, having earned just 5 points from 6 games. The team has shown defensive vulnerabilities, conceding 7 goals in this period, but managed to keep two clean sheets. Offensively, they've scored an equal number of goals, resulting in a goal difference of zero. A high-scoring encounter stands out in their 4-3 loss to Bristol City, contributing significantly to their goals tally. Interestingly, 67% of their recent matches have seen under 2.5 goals, suggesting a tendency towards tighter, lower-scoring games. Their Cup exit to lower-league Leyton Orient further highlights their current challenges.
Preston
Preston's recent form shows a mixed bag of results, with the team currently sitting in 21st position in the Championship. Their last six games have seen them go unbeaten in their last four matches, drawing their most recent three encounters. The standout performance came in a League Cup match against Harrogate Town, where Preston secured an impressive 5-0 victory, showcasing their offensive capabilities. Defensively, the team has been relatively solid, conceding only 0.83 goals per game and keeping three clean sheets in their last six matches. However, their league position suggests they may be struggling to convert draws into wins, with 67% of their recent games featuring under 2.5 goals. This indicates a tendency towards low-scoring affairs, which could be a factor in their current league standing.

Recent home/away form
Millwall
Millwall's recent home form has been concerning, with the team experiencing a challenging run of four consecutive losses across various competitions before a brief respite with a 3-0 win against Sheffield Wednesday. The Lions have struggled to find the back of the net at The Den, failing to score in four out of their last six home matches. Defensively, they've also been vulnerable, conceding in five of these games. The 3-2 loss to Watford stands out as a high-scoring affair, contributing to the 33% of matches that saw over 2.5 goals. With only one clean sheet in this period and a goal difference of -2, Millwall's home performances have been a significant factor in their current 18th position in the league, highlighting the need for improvement in both attack and defense on their own turf.
Preston
Preston's recent away form presents a mixed picture with some interesting highlights. Their last six away games include three wins, two losses, and a draw, showcasing inconsistency on the road. Notably, Preston experienced a high-scoring victory in their League Cup match against Harrogate Town, winning 5-0, which stands out as their most impressive away performance. However, they've also suffered heavy defeats, including a 3-0 loss to Swansea and a 3-1 loss to Oxford United in Championship matches. The team has shown the ability to keep clean sheets in three of these six away games, but their league position (21st) and points tally (5 from 6 games) suggest they're struggling to translate their cup and friendly successes into consistent league performances away from home.
