Game Analysis

  • Bookmakers have this as close to a coin toss as the 1X2 market gets. Millwall is the shortest price on a book of 2.70 / 3.20 / 2.57 (1 / X / 2), an implied 36.3%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 34.6% / 29.2% / 36.3% on an overround of 7.2%.

  • The draw is unusually well backed at 3.20 (29.2%), which normally points to a cagey, low-scoring game rather than an open one.

  • In the league table Blackburn sit 18th on 5 points (1W 2D 3L) with Millwall 8th on 9 points (3W 0D 2L).

  • Blackburn read L-L-D-L-W-D across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (1W 2D 3L) — more bad than good.

  • Millwall read W-L-L-W-W-L across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (3W 0D 3L) — patchy.

  • Head to head the record reads 5-0-1 — Blackburn wins, draws, then Millwall wins. Their last meeting finished Millwall - Blackburn: 1-2.

  • Blackburn team news: Andri Gudjohnsen will have a scan after picking up an injury ahead of the Sheffield United game.

  • Blackburn team news: With minimal squad depth, Tony Mowbray may opt to field the same starting XI that lost on Tuesday night.

  • Blackburn are without 8 — Andri Gudjohnsen (Out - injured), Lewis Miller (Out - injured), Moussa Baradji (Out - injured), Augustus Kargbo (Out - injured), Matty Litherland (Out - injured), Scott Wharton (Out - injured). Losing Andri Gudjohnsen (7.16/10) is the kind of absence that moves a price.

  • Millwall are without 12 — Ryan Leonard (Out - injured), Josh Coburn (Out - injured), Lukas Jensen (Out - injured), Mathis Servais (Out - injured), Tristan Crama (Out - injured), Mihailo Ivanovic (Out - injured). Losing Ryan Leonard (7.55/10) is the kind of absence that moves a price.
