Play off chasers Millwall will be looking to return to winning ways in the Championship when they welcome Swansea City to the English capital on Tuesday night. The home side are currently 10th in the table, four points behind sixth-placed Blackburn Rovers, while Swansea, who thrashed Cardiff City on Saturday, occupy 16th position, 11 points off the playoffs.
MILLWALL Millwall won five straight Championship matches between February 12 and March 5 to place themselves firmly in contention for a playoff spot, but they have only picked up maximum points from their last five games. Since beating Huddersfield Town 2-0 in the middle of March, they have lost to Stoke City and drawn with Luton Town, which has seen them drop into 10th spot in the table, four points behind sixth-placed Blackburn. The Lions now have back-to-back home matches against Swansea and Barnsley before a trip to Preston North End on April 15, and it will be fascinating to see where the capital outfit are in the table heading into their home clash with Hull City on April 18.
Millwall have never played in the Premier League, so it would be some achievement if they earned promotion to the top flight, but they have a lot of work to do to reach the top six, with Huddersfield, Luton Town, Middlesbrough and Blackburn currently the four teams in the playoffs.
SWANSEA CITY Russell Martin's side have picked up seven points from their last three matches against Peterborough United, Birmingham City and Cardiff during a strong run, but a disappointing campaign overall has left them down in 16th spot in the table, boasting 51 points from 38 matches.The Swans are 11 points behind sixth-placed Blackburn with two matches in hand; the team can still mathematically finish in the playoffs, but it is incredibly unlikely due to the amount of sides above them. Swansea have been missing from the Premier League since the 2017-18 campaign, losing in the Championship playoffs in each of the last two seasons, and they are set for a fourth straight season in the second tier of English football, but the supporters will have been encouraged by the team's recent performances.
The matchday referee Andrew Davies has handed out an astonishing 81 cards in 28 games this season.
Difficult game ( aren't they all ) but after yesterday we should be bouncing. A win at the New Den would be fantastic and is doable. 2 - 0 to Swans is my prediction

Good to have a stronger bench against Millwall
Yesterday's bench was a worry, having those two back will present problems for RM.
Lati deserves to keep his place along with every other starter so I'd keep the starting 11, manning and ntcham both should be in the squad but who do you drop from yesterday's squad?

Happy hunting ground for us over the last few seasons
Was there for the late win under Potter after a player was sent off just after it started. Good visit. More of the same please ( except for the sending off, obviously)

No change for me , it looked like everything clicked yesterday and with the players ratings so high why change , unless of course forced through injury

Also there was in London going tp catch Eurostar next day, wife was going shopping so took a chance and turned up on the day and blagged my way in. Montero came on and had one of his good days, great strike by KN26 and late goal by O.McB. Great start to short holiday break.
Never knew getting old would happen so quick!

Sunday day off, in today debrief and lucozade ðŸ‘
London later today or I’ve hear it could now be tomorrow.
As long as they all weren't absolutely, smashed, having a few beers as a team after thrashing Cardiff will be great team building. They're young, plenty of time to recover, can't see a problem there

No problem, just don't see us winning an already tough game against this backdrop.
Not that it really matters. I'll excuse them this one.

We are pretty inconsistent and we've been here before many times this season, when we have not shown up....when it seems we are building momentum. So I'm simplying not confident of anything tbh. Too much has gone on over the last few days...I fear the worst.
