Bristol City ended the month of November with a 1-0 loss to Southampton, before suffering defeats against Norwich city and Blackburn Rovers either side of a 1-1 draw at Huddersfield Town. However, the Robins then won three successive matches against the likes of Sunderland, Hull city and Watford with an aggregate scoreline of 8-3. But Liam Manning’s side were forced to share the spoils against Birmingham last time out despite having close to 65% ball possession at St. Andrew’s. Meanwhile, Bristol City have struggled for consistency at Ashton Gate this season, winning six, drawing two and losing four of their 12 matches in front of their own supporters.
Millwall, ended their seven-game winless run against Queens Park Rangers on Boxing Day thanks to two unanswered goals from Tom Bradshaw and Murray Wallace. Three days later, the Lions edged past Norwich through Bradshaw’s lone goal inside the opening 18 minutes. It was their seventh league-win of the season, and Jow Edwards’ side are now undefeated in their last four outings, scoring four goals and keeping three clean sheets in the process. Millwall are now ten points adrift of the top six, so a strong run in the coming weeks would certainly move them closer to the playoffs.
Bristol City probable starting lineup: O’Leary, Tanner, Vyner, Dickie, Pring, Williams, Gardner-Hickman, Sykes, Knight, Mehmeti, Conway
Millwall probable starting lineup: Sarkic, Leonard, Hutchinson, Cooper, Norton-Cuffy, Honeyman, Mitchell, Wallace, Emakhu, Bradshaw, Flemming
