Millwall vs Peterborough prediction, preview, team news and more | EFL Championship 2021-22
Millwall host Peterborough at The Den in the EFL Championship on Saturday, with both sides having contrasting seasons so far.
Millwall are currently ninth in the league, three points off the top six. Gary Rowett's side have been unbeaten in their last four games, but will be going into the fixture off the back of a 2-2 draw against Birmingham last time out. They will look to bounce back with a win against Peterborough on Saturday.
Peterborough, on the other hand, are currently 22nd in the league with nothing left to play for. Grant McCann's side confirmed their relegation to League One following their defeat against Nottingham Forest last time out. They will hope to finish their season strongly with a win against Millwall on Saturday.
Millwall will know this is a great opportunity to climb up the table with a win against a poor Peterborough side on Saturday.
