Millwall – Sheffield Utd Preview: Team News, Recent Form, and Possible Lineups
Read all about the recent team news for both teams and our predicted Millwall vs Sheffield United lineups:
Millwall
After their loss to Coventry in the last round, Millwall dropped out of the playoffs, but they are still just one point behind the first team in the playoff zone and they are also game or even two behind most of the teams in it. So, Millwall is still in a good spot and they can hope to make the playoffs, but they need to do well in the remainder of the season given the huge competition for just four playoff spots.
The team is currently missing injured Tyler Burey, Callum Styles, Aidomo Emakhu, Mason Bennett, and Shaun Hutchinson.
Predicted Lineup for Millwall:
Long – McNamara, Cresswell, Cooper, Wallace – Saville, Mitchell – Burke, Flemming, Watmore – Bradshaw
Sheffield Utd
The great ten-game unbeaten run by Sheffield United came to an end a few days ago when they lost to Middlesbrough at home. To make matters worse, the fact that they lost to the probably only team that could hurt their promotion chances surely hurts Sheffield Utd, but on the bright side, they are still seven points ahead of Middlesbrough and everything is in their own hands still when it comes to finishing in the Top 2 this season.
Meanwhile, Sheffield Utd has more than a few injured players right now, with Tommy Doyle, Enda Stevens, George Baldock, Rhian Brewster, R. Norrington-Davies, and Jack O'Connell all on the team's injury list.
Predicted Lineup for Sheffield Utd:
Foderingham – Ahmedhodzic, Egan, Robinson – Bogle, Berge, Norwood, McAtee, Lowe – Ndiaye, McBurnie

Player to Watch: Zian Flemming
Zian Flemming has been shining in a slightly withdrawn attacking role for Millwall this season and the popular 24-year-old has already bagged ten goals in what is his maiden campaign in the Championship.
The Dutchman is one to watch out for again when The Lions host Sheffield United in the upcoming round of Championship and the guests will have to be wary of his talents if they want to have a positive result in this match.
