Millwall vs Sunderland Previews, Form and Standout Players

Millwall Preview

Millwall Predicted Lineup - Lukas Jensen; Danny McNamara, Jake Cooper, Japhet Tanganga, Ryan Leonard; Ryan Wintle, Casper De Norre; Femi Azeez, Josh Coburn, Romain Esse; Tom Bradshaw

Millwall have put themselves firmly in the playoff conversation having picked up 23 points so far. They sit in 8th place right now. But on the form they are in, this could change very quickly. Climbing the table after this game is a possibility.

They don’t tend to score many goals having only scored 18 times this season so far however they have a very good defensive record leading to them only conceding 13 goals. Having kept five clean sheets in seven games as well they will be hopeful to keep out this strong Sunderland side.

Sunderland Predicted Lineup - Simon Moore; Dennis Cirkin, Luke O'Nien, Chris Mepham, Trai Hume; Romaine Mundle, Alan Browne, Dan Neil, Patrick Roberts; Wilson Isidor, Chris Rigg

As mentioned, Sunderland have been on fire this season. They are currently top of the league having picked up 31 points so far. They are only on top thanks to their goal difference though so a win is needed if they are to pull away again.

Their record in front of goal and at the back is outstanding so it is no surprise. They have scored the most goals in the league (25) and have conceded the fourth fewest goals as well (11). Will that continue in this game?
