Millwall vs Plymouth prediction: ENGLAND: Championship betting tips on match 2024-04-26 14:00.
[p]Millwall were one of nine clubs to have been sure of their spot in the Championship next season before this weekend’s action, rubber stamping their survival with three consecutive wins, conceding just one goal in the process. With a top-half finish just about mathematically still within reach, the aim now is to win four league games on the bounce for the first time since October 2022.[/p]
[p]Since manager Neil Harris’ first game in charge towards the end of February, only two clubs in the second tier have bettered the Lions’ 20-point return, and they’ll fancy their chances of adding more on to that tally as Plymouth visit The Den. Despite their visitors being in dire need of points, Millwall are unbeaten in the last six league H2Hs (W2, D4), keeping clean sheets in four of the last five such matches.[/p]
[p]Argyle head to the capital still needing to pick up points to avoid being dragged back into the relegation zone. Sat two points clear of the bottom three ahead of this penultimate round of games, the Pilgrims could secure their safety with victory on Saturday dependent on results elsewhere, something they’ll hope is the case to avoid a nervy final day of the campaign.[/p]
[p]Victory here would come as a surprise though, with Plymouth having picked up just 16 points on the road all season, the third-lowest tally in the Championship. Millwall has not been a happy hunting ground for the Pilgrims either, last winning a league game away against the Lions in 1967, amassing 16 winless visits since (D5, L11)! [/p]
[p]Players to watch: Millwall’s Duncan Watmore has scored three goals in his last four appearances, coming off the bench to net in the final 20 minutes in each of the last two games. Plymouth’s next yellow card will see them reach 100 for the season in the league. Bali Mumba has been responsible for 11 of their 99 so far, with his last three cautions seeing him become the first Argyle player to be shown a yellow in the game.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Plymouth have scored exactly once in seven of their last ten away league games.[/p]
