Millwall's been on fire lately, smashing teams left and right. They've got a solid home record, except for that blip against Coventry. Leicester's form's been a bit up and down, but they've shown they can nick a result away from home. This one could be tight, but Millwall's momentum might just carry them through.

Leicester's got the quality to hurt Millwall, no doubt about it. But Millwall's defence has been rock solid, and they've got the firepower up top to cause problems. If Millwall can keep their heads and play their game, they could edge this one. It's going to be a cracking match, that's for sure.

Millwall's been in top form, winning three out of their last five. They've been scoring goals for fun and keeping clean sheets at home. That loss to Coventry was a bit of a shock, but they bounced back well. If they can keep this up, they'll be tough to beat at home.

Their recent wins show they've got the confidence and the quality to take on anyone. The draw against Swansea away from home shows they can grind out results when needed. Millwall's going into this game with all the momentum, and that could make all the difference.

• Win: 2-0 vs Stoke City (H)
• Win: 2-1 vs Queens Park Rangers (A)
• Win: 3-0 vs West Bromwich Albion (H)
• Loss: 0-4 vs Coventry City (H)
• Draw: 1-1 vs Swansea City (A)

Leicester's form's been a bit patchy, with only one win in their last five. They've been drawing a lot, which shows they can compete but struggle to finish teams off. That loss to Hull was a bit of a wake-up call, but they've got the players to turn it around.

The win against Swansea away from home was a good sign, but they need to be more consistent. Leicester's got the quality, but they need to find that killer instinct. If they can click into gear, they could cause Millwall some problems.

• Loss: 1-2 vs Hull City (A)
• Draw: 1-1 vs Portsmouth (H)
• Win: 3-1 vs Swansea City (A)
• Draw: 1-1 vs Wrexham (H)
• Draw: 1-1 vs West Bromwich Albion (A)
