Millwall – Derby

Match analysis

Millwall host Derby in what promises to be a crucial clash for both sides. Sitting 13th with nine points from three wins and three defeats, the Lions will be eager to improve their goal difference, which currently stands at an even 11‑11. Derby, languishing at 22nd with just four points after one win, one draw and five losses, have a stark 6‑13 goal deficit to overcome. The disparity in recent form suggests Millwall enter the game as clear favourites, but a point could prove vital for Derby’s survival hopes. Both teams will know that three points could dramatically reshape the lower half of the table as the season progresses.
