Sports Mole previews Saturday's Championship fixture between Wycombe Wanderers and Millwall, including team news and predicted lineups.
Sports Mole

Wycombe Wanderers welcome Millwall to Adams Park on Saturday afternoon desperately needing to end their run without registering a point or scoring a goal.

As for the visitors, they head into this encounter in 12th position, despite having only posted one victory from their four league fixtures this season.


Match preview

While Gary Rowett would have wanted to have more than five points on the board at this stage of the season, the Millwall boss will put his side's results into context ahead of the next phase of the season.

Three of their games have been against Stoke City, Brentford and Swansea City, teams who are expected to challenge for promotion, while the other ended into a 1-0 success against Rotherham United.

The Lions must improve in the final third having recorded just three goals from that opening quartet of games, but conceding the same amount at the other end will fill Rowett with belief that the foundations have been laid for the rest of the campaign.

On paper, Millwall now face a much more favourable run of games which includes fixtures against three sides who narrowly avoided relegation from the second tier in July.

With Wycombe still adapting to life at this level of the English pyramid, Millwall will fancy their chances of moving closer to the top six this weekend.

The League One playoff winners are still only five points adrift of ninth place, something which highlights that a couple of positive results will get them back into the mix.

Nevertheless, Gareth Ainsworth will be the first to acknowledge that his side can only focus on breaking their duck in the final third and keeping their first clean sheet before thinking any further ahead.

The Chairboys showed signs of improvement in their last fixture against Luton Town, but Ainsworth requires a response from his squad having had the opportunity to spend a couple of weeks on the training ground.

Team News

Ainsworth will almost certainly tinker with his Wycombe side as he continues to search for a winning formula.

Fred Onyedinma could replace Daryl Horgan, who has been on international duty with Republic of Ireland.

David Stockdale will be expecting an opportunity between the sticks in the coming weeks, while Josh Knight is in line for a debut in defence or midfield after joining on loan from Leicester City.

As for Millwall, Connor Mahoney and Matt Smith are both both pushing to be included in the final third.

Jon Dadi Bodvarsson will only be named among the replacements at best after representing Iceland over the past week and a half.

Wycombe Wanderers possible starting lineup:
Allsopp; Grimmer, Stewart, Charles, Jacobson; Wheeler, Freeman, Adeniran, Onyedinma; Thompson, Samuel

Millwall possible starting lineup:
Bialkowski; Hutchinson, Pearce, Cooper; Romeo, Leonard, Woods, Malone; Wallace, Mahoney; Bradshaw


We say: Wycombe Wanderers 0-2 Millwall

The tough fixtures continue to come thick and fast for Wycombe, and we feel that will lead to a fifth successive defeat at the weekend. Millwall have been no more than solid this campaign, but the Lions should have more than enough quality to emerge victorious.
