Preston North End vs Millwall Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Millwall have won two of their last three away English League Championship games.

Preston North End are all set to host Millwall on matchday 33 of the EFL Championship 2024-25 season. The visitors Millwall are in the 14th place on the league table after winning 10 out of their 32 matches. Preston North End have the same number of points but they are 15th because of inferior goal difference.

Millwall were also held to a goalless draw in their last league game. Joe Bryan’s own goal resulted in a 1-1 draw against West Brom. Although they started the game with an early goal they dropped a couple of points. The visitors have often started games in full flow and they could look to make the most out of it against Preston North End with an early goal or two.
