Hull preview: Hoping to finally win a game
After drawing in the first two rounds of the new Championship season, along with their loss to Sheff Wed in the first round of the EFL Cup, Hull's fans will be hoping for a better performance from their team in this game. The Black & Whites have been on a rough patch even before the season started since they've failed to win any of their preseason games.
Ryan Longman, Dogukan Sinik, and goalkeeper Harvey Cartwright are all on Hull's injury list ahead of this game.
Predicted lineup: Pandur (GK), Coyle, Jones, Hughes, Giles, Simons, Burns, Slater, Omur, Estupinan & Millar

Millwall preview: Can they avoid third loss in a row in the league?
Despite the fact that they've scored five goals in two matches to start the new Championship season, Millwall somehow lost both of their games against Watford and Bristol City. On the other hand, they only score one goal against Portsmouth in the first round of the EFL Cup, but they also kept a clean sheet, so at least they've notched a win there.
Meanwhile, the Lions are currently without injured Zian Flemming, Murray Wallace, and Billy Mitchell
Predicted lineup: Jensen (GK), Leonard, Tanganga, Cooper, Bryan, Saville, De Norre, Esse, Honeyman, Watmore & Bradshaw

Player to watch: Oscar Estupinan
The 27-year-old forward has started the new season in Hull well, with one goal in the first two Championship games, so he is one of the players to keep an eye on against Millwall.
