Millwall to continue upward trend against Luton

Millwall to continue upward trend against Luton
2717

Millwall’s slow but steady rise up the Championship table continued on Sunday afternoon when they edged the points against London rivals, Brentford, at The Den in a narrow 1-0 win and has lifted The Lions into the top half of the Championship and 11th place.

New Years Day’s hosts, Millwall, have now suffered just 1 defeat out of their last 10 matches under manager, Gary Rowett, and indeed, since the arrival of Rowett, Millwall have lost just 2 of his 13 matches in charge of the London club, and the confidence is growing amongst the camp.

Millwall have also made themselves hard to beat at The Den as the hosts have lost just 1 of their last 8 matches which was a surprising 2-1 defeat to strugglers, Barnsley, but The Lions quickly bounced back with the aforementioned win against Brentford.

Having lost just 3 of their last 17 matches at home in the Championship, Millwall will be in confident mood ahead of this upcoming clash against Luton Town, and the likes of midfielder Wallace (9 goals) and forward Bradshaw (7 goals) will be keen to add to their goal tallies here.

Luton Town have had to endure a difficult first half of their Championship campaign which started in promising fashion with a 3-3 draw with Middlesbrough, but The Hatters currently sit second from bottom in the second tier following a miserable sequence of results recently.

Wins have been sporadic for Luton throughout the season to date but the defeats have flowed on a regular basis as Graeme Jones’s side have been unable to come up with any answers upon their return to the Championship.

Luton head into this clash against an in-form Millwall outfit having lost 4 of their last 5 matches overall with defeats incurred against Stoke City, Preston North End, Swansea City and Bristol City.

The visitors have earned just 1 point from the last possible 15 on offer thanks to a 3-3 draw with Fulham at Kenilworth Road but losing their last 8 away matches on the trot must have made a massive impact on Luton’s confidence, especially away from home.

In addition, Luton Town possess the worst defensive record in the division as well as failing to score in 4 of their last 5 away matches, so this trip to face a solid Millwall side certainly doesn’t bode well for The Hatters.
