The Championship schedule continues at a frenetic pace this midweek, with a tantalizing clash on the cards as in-form Millwall host promotion-chasing Leeds United on Wednesday night.
Millwall have been on an impressive run of late, picking up three straight wins over Burnley, Swansea City, and Plymouth Argyle to climb to 7th in the table. Unbeaten in their last seven games, Neil Harris’ side have displayed newfound creativity and attacking prowess, leading pundit Sam Parkin to praise their performances.
However, Parkin believes Millwall’s progress may be halted by the sheer quality and depth within the Leeds squad. Despite Millwall’s strong home form at The Den, which is notorious for being a tough away fixture, Parkin has predicted a narrow 2-1 victory for the visitors.
Leeds, currently occupying 2nd place, have hit their stride in recent weeks, winning three of their last four matches and extending their unbeaten run to eight games. Daniel Farke’s side will be eyeing top spot, which they could claim with a win if results elsewhere go their way.
The clash at The Den represents a significant test of Millwall’s top-six credentials. While their recent form against teams like Burnley has been impressive, overcoming the challenge of the in-form Whites would be a true statement of their play-off ambitions.
For Leeds, navigating the tricky away fixture at the notoriously hostile Millwall ground will be a stern examination of their promotion credentials. A win would solidify their position in the automatic promotion places, but Parkin believes the hosts’ creativity may cause the visitors some problems before Leeds ultimately edge a tight encounter.
