An important duel in the bottom section of the Championship, with both Millwall and Nottingham Forest experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 17th and the visitors in 21st place.
- Nottingham Forest is in the worst form (0-1-5)
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Millwall and Nottingham Forest.
Millwall form and stats
With 1 Championship win, 6 draws and 2 defeats from their home games, Millwall are certainly not brimming with confidence.
A strong away win for Millwall against Bristol City the last match, as Tom Bradshaw were on target. Prior to that, an away loss at Middlesbrough.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Millwall have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 16 matches with the results: Won three, drawn nine and lost four.
Millwall have scored 7 league goals here from 9 matches, not a lot. On the other hand, Millwall have conceded 9 goals.
Nottingham Forest form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Nottingham Forest, who have the fewest points (4) away in Championship, so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-7 (win-draw-lose). A depressing five defeats in a row for Nottingham in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Luton Town.
The supporters enjoyed Nottingham Forest's previous game versus Sheffield Wednesday (placed 24th), a Championship 1-0 win played at home. A 1-3 loss hosting Brentford before that.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 22 similar matches played by Nottingham in our archives, and the results are: five wins for Nottingham Forest, seven draws and ten defeats.
