A 2-0 loss away from home at Wrexham resulted in a third league game without a win in the Championship for Stoke City who have now slipped down the table to a disappointing 17th place in the second tier standings.
A previous 2-0 defeat away from home at Derby County was followed by a useful point gained in a 1-1 draw at home with Blackburn Rovers, and although these two recent defeats were damaging they were also dealt out to The Potters away from home.
The bigger picture shows Stoke City have managed to capture just two wins from their last nine league matches but both of these were registered at their bet365 Stadium with victories over Sheffield Wednesday and Watford, while an overall home record of 9-6-6 32/22 looks reasonable enough to perhaps pick up a point on Tuesday night.
3rd placed Millwall grabbed all three points on the weekend in the Championship thanks to a 2-0 home win against London rivals QPR to keep The Lions in firm contention for a possible automatic promotion spot.
The wider picture shows Millwall have lost just twice in their previous 10 matches overall in the Championship which includes collecting six wins in the process, three of which were picked up on their travels with wins on the road at Middlesbrough, Hull City and Preston NE.
Millwall also possess a solid looking record away from home which stands at 10-7-4 27/22 which should stand the London visitors in good stead but pressure can do strange things to apparently in-form teams chasing automatic promotion.
The Betting Verdict
Stoke City have lost just once in their last four meetings at home with Millwall.
The Pick :
Stoke City 1-1 Millwall
