Prediction: Brentford vs. Millwall (19.10.2019)

Preview and Teams Comparison.

Brentford have won their last two home Championship encounters with Millwall, winning 1-0 in 2017-18 and 2-0 in 2018-19. Though Brentford have lost five of their opening 11 league games, just one of those defeats came here at Griffin Park (W1, D3, L1). The hosts are one of the more solid home outfits in the Championship, picking up 68.42% of their league points at home since the beginning of last season. Brentford have won just one of their six home games in all competitions this season (W1 D4 L1) after winning 10 of their last 12 home games of the 2018-19 season. However, this season has seen a much slower start, even at home. Brentford have scored before the break in only one home game so far (HT: W1, D3, L1), with the half-time result mirroring the full-time one in all of Brentford’s home league games this season. The two players with the most shots without scoring in the Championship this season are Brentford’s Sergi Canós (30) and Said Benrahma (22).

Millwall are yet to win away from home and have scored before the break in just one of six away league games (HT: D4, L2). Coincidentally, they have conceded the opener in five of their six away matches, though they did score an equaliser on three of those occasions. Following Neil Harris’ resignation, Millwall find themselves managerless for the first time in four years. Millwall have only won once in their last eight league matches against Brentford (W1 D4 L3), a 1-0 win at the Den in March 2018. Caretaker-manager Adam Barrett looks up against it to earn a first league victory for Millwall at Brentford since 2006 (D2, L2 since), especially as opposite number Thomas Frank is unbeaten in two H2Hs with Millwall (W1, D1), with each seeing exactly two goals. Millwall have won only three of their last 31 away league games (W3 D10 L18) and are winless in 10 games on the road (W0 D5 L5).
