Millwall vs Coventry prediction, preview, team news and more | EFL Championship 2021-22

Millwall host Coventry at The Den in the EFL Championship on Saturday, with both sides having contrasting starts to their campaigns.

Millwall are currently 15th in the league, but Gary Rowett's side have picked up their form recently and are on a four-game unbeaten streak across all competitions. The Lions will hope to continue their streak against a high-flying Coventry side on Saturday.

Coventry, on the other hand, are currently fourth in the league. Mark Robins' side have won four of their last five games and will know that a win on Saturday could potentially see them end the weekend at the top of the table.

Both sides have been in good form of late, and that should make Saturday's game an exciting matchup.
