Two sides who could do well with a win square off in round 32 of the EFL Championship as Millwall play host to Ipswich Town at the Den on Wednesday.
While the Lions will be looking to pull clear of the relegation zone, the visitors are set out to rekindle their charge for automatic promotion into the Premier League.
Millwall were left empty handed yet again as they fell to a 2-1 loss against Coventry City at the Coventry Building Society Arena on Sunday.
Joe Edwards’ men have now lost five of their last six matches across all competitions, with a 1-1 draw against Preston North End on January 27 being the exception.
With 33 points from 31 matches, Millwall are currently 18th in the Championship table, just four points above the danger zone.
Elsewhere, Ipswich Town came from behind twice to salvage a 2-2 draw against West Bromwich Albion at Portman Road Stadium last Saturday.
However, Kieran McKenna’s side have now gone four consecutive games without a win in all competitions, losing twice and picking up two draws since beating Sunderland 2-1 on January 13.
For all their recent struggles, Ipswich remain on course to secure automatic promotion as they sit fourth in the league table with 60 points, just four points behind second-placed Southampton.
