Millwall vs Birmingham City prediction

Both sides have struggled this season, hovering just above the relegation zone.

Millwall's recent form is only slightly better than Birmingham's, but there's little to choose from in their last five meetings.

It's a tough matchup to call, as both Millwall's recent home form and that of Birmingham on their travels is nothing to talk home about.

Considering the same, expect a low-scoring stalemate when the two Championship strugglers renew acquaintances this weekend at The Den.

Prediction: Millwall 0-0 Birmingham
