Millwall form

Millwall goes into the upcoming weekend with the goal of breaking their poor streak in the Championship. They have fallen to a worrying position near the bottom of the division. Despite a run of three consecutive wins over Queens Park Rangers, Norwich City, and Bristol City during the holiday season, they have failed to secure another victory in their last six attempts. The team suffered defeats against Middlesbrough and QPR, followed by a 1-1 draw at home against Preston North End. They then experienced three more defeats in a row, losing 1-0 and 2-1 to Hull City and Coventry City, respectively. In their most recent game, they were defeated 4-0 at home by Ipswich Town. This string of results has left Millwall just one spot and four points above the relegation zone, although they have a seven-point advantage over their 23rd-placed opponents. The team is eager to end their losing streak with a crucial home victory on Saturday to enhance their safety and remain in the second tier of English football.

Sarkic; Leonard, Tanganga, Cooper; McNamara, De Norre, Saville, Wallace; Obafemi, Bradshaw, Flemming

Sheffield Wednesday form

In recent weeks, Sheffield Wednesday's position towards safety has worsened after a promising run under Danny Rohl. Despite being on the verge of relegation to League One in December with only one win, they managed to secure five victories in their next eight matches, including wins over Preston North End and Hull City. However, their form has since declined, with just one win in their last six games, including defeats to Southampton, Coventry City, and Huddersfield Town, as well as a draw with Watford. They did manage to bounce back with a crucial 2-0 win against Birmingham City, but then suffered a 2-0 loss to Leicester City. Now, they are focused on regaining momentum as they take on The Den in hopes of securing their eighth league win and closing the gap to safety to four points.
