Lions to win it
Millwall have no wins in their last three games; however, it's fair to point out that they've lost just two of their last 11 games. In fact, Millwall won six of those 11 games, with three draws. Additionally, Millwall have been really solid at home; they won four of their last six home games, and they've lost just once in their last eight home games. In contrast, Barnsley have been the worst road team in the Championship this season; they won just one of 19 games away from home, with four draws and 14 losses. All things considered, Millwall should be able to win this game.
Don't expect lots of goals
Recent encounters between Millwall and Barnsley have not produced a lot of goals; three of their last four meetings went under 2.5. Furthermore, both teams' recent games have mostly been on the low-scoring side. Millwall failed to score in four of their last six games; conversely, they kept five clean sheets in their last eight games. Seven of Millwall's last eight, and all of Barnsley's last six games saw less than three goals scored; with this in mind, we're making the prediction that these teams will not score three goals between them.
