Betting Tips: Millwall vs Fulham

  /  autty

Millwall and Fulham will be hoping to give their respective promotion bids a boost when they come face-to-face at the Den in Wednesday's Championship clash.

Gary Rowett's men are within touching distance of the play-off places at five points adrift of sixth, although they have only won one of their last five league matches.

Having come out on top in three of their last four home games, they are priced at 19/10 (2.90) with bet365 to get back on track with a big victory here.

The Cottagers only trail second-placed Leeds on goal difference after a run of four wins and a draw from the last five matches, and are 6/4 (2.50) favourites to claim maximum points here.

Just one of the previous nine encounters between this pair has resulted in a draw, but you can get odds of 11/5 (3.20) on them cancelling each other out in this one.

Mason Bennett and Ryan Leonard could be in contention for the hosts after making their comeback from injury in Monday's under-23 match against Norwich, although Frank Fielding and Ben Thompson remain long-term absentees.

Maxime Le Marchand and Harrison Reed are still ruled out, while Anthony Knockaert will face a late fitness test.

Although recognised as a difficult away ground, the Den has actually proved a fairly happy hunting ground for Scott Parker's men - winning three and losing none of their five visits here.

In fact, they possess a fairly dominant record over the Lions in general, having won six times and lost just once in the last eight meetings.

They will be confident of extending that record given current form, particularly the run of four clean sheets in the five most recent league fixtures.

With Millwall having failed to score in four of their last six games, odds of 6/4 (2.50) seem generous on them falling to yet another defeat against a solid Fulham outfit.
