Millwall's recent form suggests they are in good spirits, having secured three wins in their last five matches. Their ability to grind out results, as seen in their 1-0 victories against Bristol City and Sheffield Wednesday, indicates a solid defensive structure that could pose problems for Hull City. The predicted 4-1-4-1 formation should allow Millwall to maintain a compact shape while looking to exploit spaces with their attacking trio of Neghli, Ballo, and Ivanović.

Hull City, on the other hand, have had a mixed bag of results, with two wins and three losses in their recent outings. Their home form has been particularly shaky, losing to Middlesbrough and Ipswich, which might affect their confidence going into this away game. The 4-2-3-1 formation they are likely to deploy could offer them some attacking threat through Belloumi, Ndala and Joseph, but they will need to be more solid at the back to counter Millwall's recent form.

Millwall have shown strong form recently, winning three out of their last five matches. Their ability to secure narrow victories, such as the 1-0 wins against Bristol City and Sheffield Wednesday, demonstrates their resilience and defensive solidity. This run of form should give them confidence heading into the match against Hull City.
