vs Prediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Millwall go into round eight of the Championship in twelfth place with 9 points from six games: three wins and three defeats, 11 goals scored and 11 conceded. At home the record is two wins and one defeat in three matches, with 7 goals scored and 3 conceded, while on the road they have won once and lost twice, scoring 4 and conceding 8. Their last five outings have swung between results: a defeat in the most recent round, a win before that, and further back two defeats either side of an opening win. West Ham sit top of the table with 14 points after seven matches: four wins, two draws and one defeat, 20 goals scored and 9 conceded. Away from home the record reads one win, two draws and no defeats in three games, with 6 goals scored and 5 conceded; at home they have won three of four, losing the other, scoring 14 and conceding 4. The recent run shows four straight wins, preceded by a draw further back. The competition average is 2.89 goals per game. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
