Bristol City vs Millwall Prediction: Both teams are in good form

Bristol City will welcome Millwall at Ashton Gate Stadium in Game Week 26 of the English Championship. Both the teams are in good form in the league. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes?

Bristol City form

Bristol City have been in impressive form recently, earning 10 points in their last four Championship matches. They have secured victories against teams like Sunderland, Hull, and Watford, and managed a draw against Birmingham City. Liam Manning's team has had a decent season so far, with 10 wins, six draws, and nine defeats from their 25 matches. This places them in eighth position on the table, just three points behind sixth-placed Hull. It's surprising to see Bristol City competing for a playoff spot, considering their previous finishes of 19th, 17th, and 14th in the Championship. The team has struggled to maintain consistency at home, winning six, drawing two, and losing four of their 12 matches. On the other hand, Millwall has gathered 14 points from their 12 away games. Bristol City has already defeated Millwall earlier this season with a 1-0 victory. Matty James scored the winning goal in the 94th minute of the match.

Bristol City Predicted Lineup

O'Leary; Tanner, Vyner, Dickie, Pring; Williams, Gardner-Hickman; Sykes, Knight, Mehmeti; Conway

Millwall form

In their previous match, Millwall secured a 1-0 victory over Norwich City, with Tom Bradshaw scoring the solitary goal in the 18th minute. Following this win, the team also triumphed over Queens Park Rangers 2-0 on Boxing Day while achieving draws against Huddersfield Town and Stoke City. These results have given Millwall a four-game unbeaten run heading into their upcoming match. Throughout the season, Joe Edwards's side has experienced a mixed record, winning seven matches, drawing eight, and losing ten, resulting in a total of 29 points and a current position of 16th in the table. The team is comfortably eight points clear of the relegation zone and only 10 points adrift from the playoffs. A strong performance in the upcoming weeks could significantly close the gap towards a top-six position. Despite finishing eighth in the Championship last season and narrowly missing out on the playoffs, Millwall has struggled to find the back of the net during this campaign, scoring only 27 goals.

Millwall Predicted Lineup

Sarkic; Leonard, Hutchinson, Cooper; Norton-Cuffy, Honeyman, Mitchell, Wallace; Emakhu, Bradshaw, Flemming

Bristol City vs Millwall Expert Tips

Millwall has experienced only four defeats in away matches throughout the Championship this season, with five matches resulting in a draw. Comparatively, Bristol City has failed to secure a victory in six out of twelve home league games during the 2023-24 season.
