Hull City v Birmingham City - Emirates FA Cup Third Round — Hull City will host Millwall on Saturday

Hull City and Millwall will battle for three points in an EFL Championship round 30 fixture on Saturday.

The home side were last in action a fortnight ago when they claimed a 1-0 away victory over Sunderland. Fabio Carvalho scored the match-winner in the 71st minute to help his side claim all three points.

Millwall, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw at home to Preston North End. First-half goals from Zian Flemming and Brad Potts ensured that parity was restored at fulltime.

The draw left the Lions in 16th spot with 33 points to show for their efforts in 29 games. Hull City are eighth, having garnered 42 points from 28 games.

Twelve of Millwall's 29 league games this season have seen both sides find the back of the net, the joint-lowest in the league (alongside Ipswich Town).

Hull City vs Millwall Prediction

Hull City are within touching distance of the playoff spots and manager Liam Rosenior was busy during the winter transfer window, highlighting his objectives. The Tigers have alternated between a win and loss in their last six home games and, having lost their last game here to Norwich, the omens could be in their favor.

Millwall are too far away from the upper echelons but just eight points separates them from the bottom three. A defeat here could leave them in a precarious position.

We are backing the home side to claim all three points with a narrow victory and a clean sheet.

Prediction: Hull City 1-0 Millwall
