Points to be shared
It might not come as a huge surprise that we are backing this match to end level given we've already highlighted that both Millwall and Blackpool are destined for mid table finishes with very little between the two. Recent form paints a similar picture with Blackpool and Millwall collecting two wins from their last five league games whilst losing the other three. The other thing that brings us to our draw prediction is that whilst Blackpool have home advantage, Millwall do edge the recent head to head record; they've won two of the last four losing one and drawing the other.
We'll see goals
Next up is an over 2.5 goals tip, which is much easier and cleaner to explain. In essence, both teams have been involved in their fair share of high scoring games lately. Blackpool have gone over 2.5 goals in four of their past five games having averaged 3.2 goals per game. Millwall have past the 2.5 threshold on three occasions across their most recent five games with an average of 2.6 per game. As for the head to head goal scoring history, the last two – and three of the last five – have gone beyond 2.5 goals.

Blackpool vs Millwall: It's predicted lineup time
It's tough to get too excited about what is blatantly a meeting between two middle of the road teams. That said, they'll both share the same thoughts inside the camp; a good run would get a glimmer of hope about a playoff charge going.
Blackpool Predicted Lineup
We've not exactly bigged up a mid table finish in this article but that will be some feat for a Blackpool side that only won promotion last season. They'll see this as a winnable game in front of their win fans too.
Predicted lineup – Grimshaw, Sterling, Ekpiteta, Keogh, Husband, Bowler, Gretarsson, Dougall, Anderson, Madine, Yates
Millwall Predicted Lineup
Millwall have long been a solid Championship side and there is nothing wrong with that but, at some point, they'll want to kick on to the next level. Theoretically speaking, that's not out of the question for this season but they'll need to start banking wins soon.
Predicted lineup – Bialkowski, Hutchinson, Cooper, Wallace, McNamara, Mitchell, Evans, Malone, Ojo, Bradshaw, Afobe
