Leicester City confirmed their relegation to League One after a 2-2 draw against Hull City. This result effectively ends their campaign in the EFL Championship. Meanwhile, Millwall is currently in third place, vying for automatic promotion.
Millwall has won their last two games, including a decisive 3-1 victory over Stoke City. They have shown strong form lately, with six victories, two defeats, and two draws in their last ten league games. In contrast, Leicester City has struggled with only one win and four losses in the same span.
Patson Daka leads Leicester as their top scorer with three goals. On the other hand, Josh Coburn stands out for Millwall with six goals this season. Both teams will employ a 4-2-3-1 formation when they meet at the King Power Stadium.
The match is set to kick off at 14:00 on April 24, 2026. Observers expect Millwall to capitalize on Leicester’s dismal season. Gary Rowett commented on the situation, saying, “I think there will be players who have been trying to get through some of the games…” His words reflect the challenges both teams face.
Millwall’s away performance has been impressive; they have won seven of their last ten games on the road. The odds suggest that they are favored to win this encounter—football betting markets indicate that Millwall is priced at -132 to secure a victory.
Yet Leicester has historically struggled against Millwall, having lost their last two encounters. The stakes are high as Leicester seeks to end their season on a positive note while Millwall aims for a vital win that could seal their promotion hopes.
As both teams prepare for this crucial match, uncertainties linger around Leicester’s ability to regroup after such a challenging season. Fans will watch closely as these dynamics unfold on the pitch.
