This weekend, Millwall vs Lincoln City predictions and betting tips arrive at The Den for a 12.30pm Championship kick-off, with the Lions favoured against a Lincoln side in freefall.
Millwall slipped to a 1-0 home defeat by leaders Swansea last time out but remain mid-table, where their physical approach makes them awkward opponents. Lincoln, by contrast, have lost their last three and shipped six at home to West Ham in the most recent of them.
Anthony Eadson sees a low-scoring home win and has built his selections around Millwall keeping it tight and their main striker finding the net.
Premium Tips
Two picks for a Den contest that should be settled in the Lions’ favour by a narrow margin.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Second half to be the highest-scoring half | 11/10 (William Hill) | Goals have tended to come after the break in these sides’ games this season, with the second half producing more goals than the first in 13 of their 20 combined Championship matches. Millwall have been hard to break down early, while Lincoln have often had to chase games late on after slow starts. With both managers likely to set up cautiously, the game could open up as legs tire. William Hill offer 11/10 on the second half being the highest-scoring half. |
| Camiel Neghli to score anytime | 3/1 (Paddy Power) | Camiel Neghli has caught the eye in a struggling Millwall side, weighing in with three goals from midfield in his 10 appearances to sit among their leading scorers. Against a Lincoln back line that has shipped 17 goals already, the Lions should fashion openings at The Den. Neghli’s knack of arriving in the box late makes him a tidy price to get on the scoresheet, and with Lyndon Dykes occupying defenders up top, there will be room for runners from deep. At 3/1 he looks a generous price to find the net. |
