Millwall welcome Swansea City to the Den for an EFL Championship matchday nine clash on Saturday (September 30).
The hosts are coming off a goalless draw at West Bromwich Albion last weekend. Swansea, meanwhile, saw off Sheffield Wednesday 3-0 victory at home in a relegation six-pointer. Jamal Lowe, Jerry Yates and Charlie Patino scored in the rout.
The win saw the Swans climb out of the drop zone to 21st spot, having garnered six points from eight games. Millwall, meanwhile, are 11th with as many points to show for their efforts after eight games.

Millwall vs Swansea City Prediction
Millwall narrowly missed out on the playoffs by one point last season, so the Lions will look to make amends this term. However, they have had a stop-start campaign, leaving them two points off the top six.
Swansea, meanwhile, have had an even rockier start and were in the drop zone before their win over Sheffield last weekend. The Welsh outfit can count on a positive record in recent years against Millwall, while both sides are also well-rested, having not been in League Cup action in midweek.
Nevertheless, expect the hosts to claim a narrow win with goals at both ends.
Prediction: Millwall 2-1 Swansea
