The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Millwall are in the 16th position while the guesting Coventry City worry at 17th.
- Coventry City has the most conceded goals in the second half (22) in Championship
The visiting Coventry City played their last game only four days ago, a Championship match. That game was also an away game, at Preston North End. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Millwall form and stats
Millwall's results here at The Den in the Championship have been very modest with 1 victory, 7 draws and 2 defeats. With seven home Championship games in a row without a win, the Millwall fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Luton Town game long ago, can be stopped today.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Millwall, who played 1-1 against Nottingham Forest. That match was also played at this venue (The Den). A strong away win before that one, visiting Bristol City and winning 2-0.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Millwall have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found twelve games) they have won three times, drawn six and lost three.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Millwall here at The Den in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (8 from 10 games). 10 goals have been conceded.
Coventry City form and stats
There's been little loot from Coventry City's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 11 away games in the Championship. Coventry City only have 1 win to counter their 7 defeats and 3 draws. Coventry City has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
L. Kelly was the last player to score for the away team. Coventry haven't scored a league goal in the last 405 minutes.
Coventry lost away at Preston North End (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. A draw for Coventry before that, at their own venue hosting Stoke City (0-0).
We have checked recent matches where Coventry have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those six games were zero victories, four draws and two defeats.
The visitors have scored 8 goals from 11 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Coventry's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 17 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: four - one - five (Millwall wins - draws - Coventry City wins). As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.Top Goalscorers
