• Fixture: Millwall vs Sheffield Wednesday
• Date: Wednesday, 26 November 2025
• Kick-off: 19:45 GMT
• Venue: The Den

Millwall's recent form has been inconsistent, with a mix of losses and draws, but they did manage a solid home win against Leicester. This suggests they can be dangerous on their day, particularly at The Den. Their style of play seems to be built around a solid defensive structure, as seen in their recent lineups, but they'll need to be more clinical in front of goal to overcome Sheffield Wednesday. The Lions will likely look to exploit any weaknesses in Sheffield Wednesday's defence, which has been leaky in recent games.

Sheffield Wednesday, on the other hand, have struggled to find form, losing three of their last five matches. Their defence has been a particular concern, conceding multiple goals in several games. However, they have shown resilience in drawing against Norwich and West Brom, indicating they can hold their own against tough opposition.

The Owls will need to tighten up at the back and hope their attacking players can find the net to secure a positive result against Millwall.

Millwall's recent form has been up and down, with a notable home win over Leicester but also heavy losses to Portsmouth and Birmingham. This inconsistency could play a role in their upcoming match against Sheffield Wednesday.

The Lions will need to find a balance between their solid defensive performances and their ability to score, as seen in their draw against Oxford United. If they can replicate their performance against Leicester, they stand a good chance of securing a positive result.

Sheffield Wednesday have had a tough run of late, losing three of their last five games and conceding multiple goals in those losses. This poor defensive record could be a significant concern heading into their match against Millwall.

However, their ability to draw against Norwich and West Brom shows they can be competitive. The Owls will need to shore up their defence and hope their attackers can find the back of the net to turn their fortunes around.

Recent Championship Results:

• Loss: 0-3 vs Sheffield Utd (H)

• Loss: 1-3 vs Southampton (A)

The head-to-head record between Millwall and Sheffield Wednesday shows a competitive rivalry, with Millwall securing a convincing victory in their last home game against the Owls. However, their most recent encounter ended in a 2-2 draw, suggesting that both teams are evenly matched.

Sheffield Wednesday did manage a 2-0 win at Millwall in February 2024, suggesting they can pose a threat away from home. This history adds an extra layer of intrigue to their upcoming clash.
