Millwall vs Sheffield United Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Sheffield are leading the EFL Championship by a point.

Matchday 20 of the EFL Championship will take us to the Den where Millwall will host Sheffield United in an enthralling encounter. Sheffield are sitting at the top of the points table with 39 points. They have 12 wins, five draws, and two losses so far in their campaign.

The Blades are in a strong position to secure promotion to the first division of English football. However, we are only halfway through the season and consistency is key if they want to play in the Premier League next season.

Millwall on the other hand find themselves in the bottom half of the table at 11th position. They have secured only one win in their last five league matches. They have a game in hand and can jump to the 9th spot with a win against Sheffield United.

The Lions have only accumulated 25 points in their league campaign so far with only six wins in 18 matches. Neil Harris saved the club from relegation last season and is now expected to take Millwall to the next level.
