PREVIEW | Millwall vs Middlesbrough - team news, lineups, predictions | OneFootball

Millwall host Middlesbrough this Saturday at The New Den for Matchweek 42 of the EFL Championship.

The Lions have 57 points to their name this season and are up to ninth in the table. Last time out, Alex Neil's team picked up an impressive 0-1 win at Sheffield United thanks to a Josh Coburn strike.

Middlesbrough, meanwhile, have won 60 points to date and are placed in 7th position. Michael Carrick's team slipped to a 0-1 defeat against league leaders Leeds United in midweek.

The last meeting between the two teams ended in a narrow 1-0 win for Middlesbrough.

Omer (That Millwall Podcast): My third preview in a week, and I didn't think I'd be writing this one on the back of two wins setting us up nicely for this game on Saturday.

Tuesday night saw us defeat Sheffield United at Bramall Lane while keeping a clean sheet to keep "the dream" of reaching the play-offs lingering around for a bit longer.

People will start to become more hopeful, however we need to retain our underdog status going into Saturday's game against Boro.

Our home form is on the up and the atmosphere will be bouncing come kick-off Saturday, and if we need an omen ahead of the weekend having lost our last two fixtures against the visitors, never in history have we lost three on the bounce to Boro.

Hopefully the likes of Bangura-Williams and Connolly can make their way back into the matchday squad, having missed Tuesday night. Those two aside, I can't see many changes aside from Coburn who cannot play against his parent club.

Let's go for it, 1-0 to The Lions!

Prediction: 1-0
