Our prediction for this Championship match:
All eyes will be on the Den when Millwall and Sheffield United lock horns in the Championship round 20. The Lions have been involved in some low-scoring games of late and they will continue relying on their rock-solid defence in Wednesday’s clash. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but all Coburn, Cooper, and Scanlon remain in the treatment room.
The Blades, on the other hand, are eager to retain top position in the standings. Sheffield United are after their fifth away win of the season and given Millwall’s four-game winless run in the English second tier, away triumph should definitely be considered. As Tyrese Campbell limped off with injury in a 2-2 draw with WBA, talented attacker Ryan One is likely to step up. In their last encounter in London Millwall defeated Sheffield United, meaning that the visitors are hungry for revenge.
Highlighted Team (Millwall):
Based in Bermonsdey, South East London, Millwall are a football club whose supporters have often been associated with hooliganism. West Ham United are considered the club’s biggest rivals and there have always been fireworks in clashes between the two teams.
The Lions share rivalry with Charlton as well and the two teams first met back in 1921. The Den is Milwall’s home ground at the capacity of the stadium, which was opened in 1993, is 20.146.
The capital club did well to make it to the 2003/2004 FA Cup final, but Premier League giants Manchester United proved to be a big catch for the Lions. The Red Devils won the game 3-0, but despite suffering the heavy loss in the title game, Milwall booked their place in the UEFA Cup. However, Ferencvaros of Hungary proved to be a big catch for the English outfit in the two-legged tie.
Australia international Tim Cahill is considered one of the most notable footballers who whore Millwall shirt (1998-2004).
