Millwall vs Reading Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 27th August 2022
Millwall are the favourites by a long shot on Sunday for a Championship round six match against Reading at The Den on Saturday. Millwall go into their encounter with fond memories, as they won 1-0 and 1-0 the last two times they played Reading.
Millwall are number 10 in the table on seven points after five matches. Reading rank as number three with nine points after five matches played.
Entering the match on Saturday as favourite, Millwall will be looking to squeeze past Reading in the Championship table with a win. While not an impossible task, the visitors are of course highly motivated to at least maintain the current gap.
Millwall only average a modest 1.5 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 15 goals. They also conceded 13 for an average of 1.3 per game. They kept their opponents from scoring two times.

Millwall vs Reading Prediction
Judging by their last three matches, we can expect a bit of everything from Millwall at the moment. Against Coventry, they came out on top in a 3-2 win, before drawing 2-2 against Swansea. Most recently, they were left reeling in a 2-0 defeat against Norwich. In their last six Championship home matches, Millwall racked up five strong wins, but no draws as they lost once. They scored 14 and conceded five goals.
An optimal season could perhaps see Millwall qualifying for Europe, but so far they look well underway to a nice mid-table finish.
In their last three matches, Reading lost against Rotherham by 4-0, beat Blackburn by 3-0 winning 1-0 against Middlesbrough. Reading only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the Championship. In these six matches they drew one and lost four as well as being outscored by 11 goals to three.
Few would have predicted Reading to perform as well as they done silencing talk of relegation with nice performances.
Millwall look in strong shape, while Reading don't look quite as convincing, which makes betting on the home win a no-brainer in this match.
