Millwall in relegation trouble
Millwall is in a very complicated position where a mistake can cost them dearly at this stage of the season, the EFL Championship is a very complicated tournament and while you can premier in a great way, it is always difficult to achieve a high level, the fight in the lower zone is very close, as several mid-table teams can be involved, this team has already been competing in this division for a long time and certainly knows how to stay, This team has had a complicated season achieving only eight wins in thirty-three games, the team has four consecutive defeats and if they get to face a team that is looking for promotion in the first places, this team is not among the relegated teams at the moment, but a mistake could put them in that situation.
Southampton still hopeful of direct promotion
Southampton is having a great season in the EFL Championship, this team last season was relegated from the Premier League being in last place, certainly a hard blow for the fans, the goal now is certainly to seek promotion in any way they can, currently the team is fourth in the table with sixty-seven points, a good amount to still have a chance of promotion, To achieve direct promotion they are five points behind second place in the table, letting points go at this point is bad for the aspirations of anyone and especially if there is a chance of promotion, this team also has the option to fight to be the last promoted team, but this fight is always exhausting and a mistake can end the dream, against Millwall they cannot let the three points slip away, because in appearance it is a team that is not doing well at all.
An interesting duel
The EFL Championship is nearing the end of its season and it is at this point, the teams are looking to close with the best they have to get the most points, the game between Southampton vs Millwall, is a duel where the teams live very different realities, both with the goal of getting the three points will go out to give everything and it will be a great show.
