Recent respective form guides

Millwall's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Lions have scored 4, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Watford's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the Hornets, and 9 goals against.

Millwall find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 52 points from their 40 matches.

Watford are just outside the promotion places, in 3rd, having taken 71 points from 42 games.
