Promotion-chasing Millwall<\/a> host struggling Oxford United<\/a> in a match with plenty at stake for both ends of the Championship<\/a> table. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Millwall sitting third and Oxford already relegated, the form book and season stats suggest a one-sided contest, but recent head-to-heads hint at potential surprises. Kick-off is set for Saturday, 12:30pm at The Den.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
