Recent form

Cardiff City

Cardiff City is experiencing a significant downturn in form, currently sitting at the bottom of the Championship table with just 1 point from 7 games. The team is on a concerning five-game losing streak across all competitions, with their last positive result being a 1-1 draw against rivals Swansea. Defensively, Cardiff are struggling, having conceded 15 goals in their last 6 matches, an average of 2.5 per game, and have failed to keep a clean sheet during this period. The 5-3 defeat to Southampton in the League Cup stands out as a particularly high-scoring affair. Offensively, the team is also facing challenges, scoring only 5 goals in 6 games, averaging less than a goal per match. With 67% of their recent games seeing under 2.5 goals, Cardiff's matches have generally been low-scoring, except for the Southampton cup tie.

Millwall's recent form shows a mixed bag of results, with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses in their last 6 games across all competitions. Their defensive record is particularly noteworthy, conceding only 0.67 goals per game and keeping 2 clean sheets in this period. The team's goal-scoring has been moderate, averaging 1.17 goals per game. Interestingly, 67% of their recent matches have seen under 2.5 goals, indicating a tendency towards lower-scoring encounters. Their most recent game, a 3-1 victory against Preston, stands out as their highest-scoring match in this run.

Recent home/away form

Cardiff City

Cardiff City's recent home form has been concerning, with the team currently on a three-game losing streak at their own stadium. Their last six home matches have yielded only two wins, both in cup competitions, while they've lost all three of their home league games. The team has struggled to score in the Championship, failing to find the net in their last three home league matches. However, their League Cup tie against Southampton was a high-scoring affair, ending 3-5 in favor of the visitors. Cardiff's defensive record at home has also been poor, conceding at least two goals in each of their last four home games across all competitions. This poor run of form has contributed to their current position at the bottom of the Championship table with just one point from seven games.

Millwall

Millwall's recent away form presents a mixed picture, with the team showing inconsistency in their performances. In their last six away games, they've managed two wins, two draws, and two losses, reflecting a balanced but unpredictable run of results. The team has been involved in some high-scoring encounters, most notably a thrilling 4-3 defeat against Bristol City in the Championship. Defensively, Millwall has shown improvement in their last two away league games, securing clean sheets in both matches. However, their overall defensive record remains a concern, conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game across the six-game sample. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 67% of these matches, suggesting that Millwall's away games often feature goals at both ends.
