Match Time & Date:

20:45
Prediction: 1-1
Leicester
The Den will host Wednesday’s EFL Cup game between Millwall and Leicester City. The Dons are undefeated in the previous five games in all competitions, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Leicester. You should bear in mind that the Championship side have defeated the likes of Portsmouth and Cambridge United on their way to the EFL Cup last 32.
All Afobe, Evans, McNamara, and Ojo are likely to miss the game with injuries, while Bennett, Mahoney, and Mitchell are pushing for a start. The Foxes, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 2-1 loss to Brighton. Considering that Brendan Rodgers will rest Jamie Vardy and other important players in Wednesday’s clash, we are tempted to put our money on draw. Ayoze Perez returns from suspension, while Justin, Mendy, Fofana, and Evans are all sidelined with injuries.
