Millwall vs Watford prediction: The visitors to avoid defeat
Key Stats
- Millwall haven't won any of their last three matches in all competitions.

Neither of these teams have that winning feeling at the moment, but it's the visitors who have looked more assured in recent weeks and were very unlucky to lose to Blackburn last time out.

Millwall preview: Problems everywhere
There is no team in the EFL with a longer list of injuries than Millwall right now, which puts them on the back foot ahead of Monday night. The Lions are set to be without at least six first-team players for the match against Watford, while three others are also doubts.
Predicted lineup: Benda (GK), Leonard, Crama, Cooper, Bryan, Luonho, Neghli, Cundle, Emakhu, Ivanovic, Coburn
Last five results
- Crystal Palace 1-1 Millwall
- Charlton 1-1 Millwall
- Millwall 0-2 Wrexham
- Millwall 2-1 Coventry
- Sheffield United 0-1 Millwall
Watford preview: Duo to return?
Watford could welcome Perre Dwomoh and Nampalys Mendy back into the starting XI for this one, with the pair back in training after their respective injuries. The Hornets will be without Giorgio Chakvetadze, Caleb Wiley and Jack Grieves through injury, and Othmane Maamma due to international duty.
Predicted lineup: Selvik (GK), Keben, Pollock, Petris, Alleyne, Louza, Kayembe, Sissoko, Baah, Irankunda, Kjerrumgaard
Last five results
- Watford 0-1 Blackburn
- Watford 2-2 Southampton
- Swansea 1-1 Watford
- Watford 2-1 QPR
- Watford 1-2 Norwich City
Player to watch: Luca Kjerrumgaard
Big things are expected of Luca Kjerrumgaard, and although he started his Watford career with a double against QPR, the Udinese loanee has been off the boil ever since. There is clearly an abundance of talent there with the 22-year-old; he just needs to find some consistency in the coming months. If he can, then the Hornets will start climbing the table.
