            Millwall vs Birmingham City Preview, Tips & Stats

            Birmingham City make the trip to The Den this Saturday to take on Millwall in the Championship. Both sides sit in the bottom half of the table and need a win to put some space between themselves and the relegation zone.

            Millwall currently sit 18th in the Championship after 36 games. The Lions have ten wins, ten draws and 16 losses, leaving them on 40 points, only two points above the relegation zone.

            In their last five games in all competitions, Millwall have two wins, one draw and two losses.

            The visit from Ipswich Town saw goals from Nathan Broadhead, Kieffer Moore and Ali Al-Hamadi and an own goal from Wes Harding in a 4 - 0 win for Ipswich. Despite the late red card to Sheffield Wednesday’s Ashley Fletcher, goals from Ike Ugbo and Anthony Musaba gave Wednesday the 2 - 0 win over Millwall, despite The Lions having more of the possession.

            Millwall bounced back the next time out against Southampton. Japhet Tanganga opened the scoring for Millwall in the fifth minute but Che Adams equalised for Southampton just after the 30 minute mark. However, a penalty from Zian Flemming secured the 2 - 1 win for Millwall. It was another win for The Lions against Watford. Flemming was on the scoresheet again for Millwall with the only goal of the game in the 1 - 0 win for Millwall.

            The last time out for Millwall was against Blackburn Rovers. Michael Obafemi gave Millwall the lead early in the second half, converting the only shot on target for The Lions, but a goal from Sammie Szmodics grabbed a 1 - 1 draw for Blackburn.

            Birmingham sit just below Millwall in 20th in the Championship. In 35 games, The Blues have ten wins, nine draws and 16 losses which leaves them on 39 points, only one point above the relegation zone.

            In their last five games in all competitions, Birmingham have two wins, one draw and two losses.

It was another win for The Blues, the next time out against Sunderland. The goal from Jack Clarke gave Sunderland the 1 - 0 lead at halftime. However, goals from Jordan James and Koji Miyoshi gave Birmingham the 2 - 1 win over Sunderland.

            The trip to Ipswich, however, was one to forget for Birmingham. Conor Chaplin opened the scoring for Ipswich, but James equalised for Birmingham before halftime. Jeremy Sarmiento and Omari Hutchinson both scored late on to secure the 3 - 1 win for Ipswich. It was a seven goal thriller for Birmingham against Southampton. Miyoshi, Jay Stansfield and Juninho Bacuna were all on the scoresheet for Birmingham, but goals from Adam Armstrong, David Brooks, Adams and Joe Aribo gave Southampton the 4 - 3 win over a ten-man Birmingham, with Dion Sanderson sent off for The Blues.
