Millwall vs. Wrexham: Everything You Need to Know Before the Big Clash

Wrexham will be looking to secure their first victory of the campaign when they head to Millwall in the Championship on Wednesday.

The Red Dragons have managed only two points from their opening three games, following draws against Cardiff City and Watford with a frustrating home loss to Birmingham City. Despite the slow start, Wrexham are still a point ahead of where they stood at the same point last season and will be hoping for a repeat of history, having claimed their first win away at Millwall in their fourth fixture last time around.

Millwall made a strong impression in their first two games of the season, picking up back-to-back wins, but were brought firmly back to reality with a heavy 5–1 defeat at the hands of Southampton last weekend. Both teams will therefore be eager to get back on track midweek in what promises to be a tightly contested encounter.

A Point Apiece

Both Wrexham and Millwall will be keen to get back to winning ways on Wednesday, yet neither side can afford to drop further points. That dynamic could produce a cautious contest settled by a set piece or a moment of brilliance from an attacker.

Phil Parkinson was visibly angered by his team conceding two "of the softest goals" of his five-year reign during the recent loss to Birmingham, making it fascinating to see how he addresses a defense that has let him down ahead of the visit to The Den.

Prediction: Millwall 1–1 Wrexham

Millwall Predicted Lineup vs. Wrexham

For Millwall, team selection against Wrexham in midweek may largely come down to availability following their recent injury concerns.

Another change between the posts will be required, with Max Crocombe expected to retain his spot, while the defensive unit from the weekend thrashing could remain intact.

Alex Neil felt his side performed "excellent" in the early stages of their Southampton defeat and may opt for the same attacking setup here. Josh Coburn has already netted twice this season, though Lyndon Dykes could prove to be a shrewd pick against Wrexham's robust defensive line.

Millwall predicted lineup vs. Wrexham (4-3-3): Crocombe; Sykes, Taylor, Cooper, Sturge; Neghli, De Norre, Metcalfe; Arconte, Lisbie, Coburn.

Wrexham Predicted Lineup vs. Millwall

Parkinson may hand Worrall his debut as he seeks to shore up a defense that proved costly against Birmingham in their last outing. Anthony Patterson is set to retain the goalkeeper's jersey, while Callum Doyle is expected to start at the back.

Issa Kaboré will push Danny Imray for a place on the right side, while Jacques Ekomié is likely to hold his position on the left. Lewis O'Brien could be paired with Matty James in the center of midfield as the Red Dragons lean on experience in pursuit of their first win of the season.

Josh Windass could be handed his first start of the campaign after returning from injury, while Sam Smith may come in to replace Kieffer Moore up front.

Wrexham predicted lineup vs. Millwall (3-4-2-1): Patterson; Hyam, Worrall, Doyle; Imray, James, O'Brien, Ekomié; Rathbone, Windass; Smith.
