Yesterday they drew away to Ipswich, coming back from 2-1 down to salvage a 2-2 draw to continue their good run of form.

Looking nervously at the Championship’s form team could be Millwall’s rivals West Ham.
The Hammers have been struggling for form and a loss of identity after moving to the London Stadium, with fans recently protesting against the owners.
