Cardiff City, Recent FormThe Cardiff City players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Southampton recently, that ended in a 2-0 defeat. They achieved 37% possession in that match and had 10 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Southampton's tally of 18 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
Erol Bulut will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 6 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 7 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 2 clean sheets in those games.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form, having lost 3 of their last 6 games and picking up only 2 wins.
Aaron Ramsey will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Cardiff City.
Millwall, Recent FormGrabbing a valuable league point from their recent 1-1 draw against Sunderland will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Millwall. Their share of possession in that meeting was 40%, while racking up 7 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Sunderland had 10 shots on goal with 3 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 8 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 10, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Millwall will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 away games, but with only 2 wins there is some room for improvement.
On an individual basis, Zian Flemming will be looking to cause Cardiff City some problems having scored 3 goals in Millwall's last 6 away games in the league.
There was no upset on the cards last time these two sides met; on that occasion, Millwall produced a comfortable 0-1 victory.
The Lions will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Cardiff having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 9 meetings. Ahead of this match, Cardiff won't like the look of their goal stats, having failed to secure a goal in their last 2 meetings against The Lions.
Millwall has won the last 3 games they've played against Cardiff in the league.
With only Callum O'Dowda (Leg) and Aaron Ramsey (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Erol Bulut will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Millwall manager Joe Edwards ahead of this clash, with Joe Bryan (Groin) missing out, which gives Edwards a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
