Recent respective form guides

Millwall's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Lions have scored 6, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Leicester City's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Foxes have hit 10 goals, 16 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Millwall find themselves struggling down in 18th position in the league having picked up 47 points from their 42 matches.

Leicester City's 62 points from 42 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 9th position.
