Millwall v Derby: play-off charge meets top-six chase | OneFootball

Millwall face Derby County in the Championship at The Den on Tuesday, 10 March, with the hosts third and the visitors seventh as the play-off race tightens.

Millwall have won four of their last five games, while Derby County arrive on the back of three wins in five. The reverse fixture finished 1-1 in December.

The Lions have a lengthy injury list, including Joe Bryan, Ryan Leonard, Casper de Norre, Lukas Jensen, Alfie Doughty, Caleb Taylor, Benicio Baker-Boaitey and Daniel Kelly. Derby are without defenders Danny Batth, Callum Elder, Sondre Langås and Max Johnston, goalkeeper Jacob Zetterström and midfielder Liam Thompson.

Alex Neil's side have kept 14 clean sheets and are strong in the air, winning 965 aerial duels this season. Femi Azeez leads their output with eight goals and six assists. Derby have scored 54 times, including 15 headed goals, and with a 24.75% open play cross accuracy and Joe Ward on seven assists, deliveries from wide could be a key route to supply Patrick Agyemang and Carlton Morris, both on 10 Championship goals.

A home win would strengthen the Lions' grip on the play-off places. In seventh, the Rams could close in on the top six if they extend their recent upturn.
