Cambridge United vs Millwall EFL Cup, Round 1 Fixture Preview
The EFL Cup fixture between Cambridge United and Millwall will be the second in the competition. The teams met previously in this tournament, a match that Millwall won 3-1 at home back in August 2022. Will the visitors keep their perfect record against Cambridge Utd going?
Notably, Millwall has been the king in this matchup against Cambridge. But that could change if the Cambridge build on their good start to the new season 2022/22. The hosts won their first game of the season 1-0 at home against MK Dons. However, Cambridge didn’t do well in pre-season games. The hosts lost all their pre-season fixtures but it seems that didn’t impact them much after picking 3 points from the first game of the season. With that, we expect Cambridge to fight hard to secure their first win against Millwall.
Millwall will play in the Championship league this season. By that alone, they are presumed the favourites in this trip. The hosts are in England League one.
There has never been a time these teams have been in the same league, so with both teams winning their season openers with clean sheets of 1-0 and 2-0 respectively, this will be a tough contest.
