Up until the games played before the international break, West Brom had not recorded successive wins in the Championship since the turn of the year.

That has now changed, the Baggies defeating Huddersfield Town and Bristol City respectively to provide themselves with an eight-point advantage in the playoff race.

With the chasing pack possessing a match in hand, Carlos Corberan will stress to his side that they cannot afford to be complacent, but that should not be the case with West Brom having lost just one of their last 10 fixtures in the second tier.

The loss in question came at home to Southampton, just West Brom's third defeat in 19 league fixtures at The Hawthorns, yet their form away from their West Midlands home has gone under the radar.

Two wins and three draws have been posted in their last five such fixtures, the triumphs coming at Plymouth Argyle and Huddersfield, although this is still a side that have lost more away games (seven) than they have won (six) this campaign.

Meanwhile, Neil Harris is currently working wonders in the Millwall dugout, a total of 10 points being accumulated from a possible 15 since his return to The Den.

Such has been the progress of the Lions that there was genuine disappointment to lose 2-0 at leaders Leeds United before the international break.

Nevertheless, three wins and two clean sheets had been posted from the four preceding encounters, enough to catapult the East Londoners four points clear of the drop zone.

Millwall possess the fourth-worst home record in the division, yet they have prevailed 1-0 in each of their last two fixtures on familiar territory against Watford and Birmingham City.

Prediction: Millwall 1-2 West Bromwich Albion
