Our opponents

The Lions will be hunting down a fourth straight Sky Bet Championship victory on Saturday afternoon at The Den.

Gary Rowett's men have collected maximum points against Middlesbrough, Bristol City and most recently Watford, who they beat 3-0 on home soil in midweek.

Millwall, who have finished ninth or higher in three of the last five second-tier seasons, sit just one point outside the play-off positions ahead of Albion's visit to London.

No team in the Championship has won more points at home than this weekend's hosts, with the Lions picking up 18 from their eight matches on familiar turf (W6, D0, L2). 

Rowett, a former defender for Birmingham City, Leicester City, Derby County and Charlton Athletic among others, has been at the helm since October 2019. The 48-year-old has won 60 of his 153 matches in charge, drawing 46 and losing 47. 

Millwall have taken ten points from the last 12 on offer

From the Albion Archive 

Albion secured a 2-0 win down at The Den in stormy conditions back in February 2020.

Filip Krovinovic kicked things off with a great strike from outside the box in the first 45, before Dara O'Shea nodded in a second after the break - his first Albion goal.

One for the stattos

The last three meetings at The Den have all ended in 2-0 scorelines. 

Millwall claimed 2-0 victories over Albion in January 2022 and April 2019, while the Baggies earned three points in the capital in February 2020. 

Albion's last two games have finished 2-0 too, winning at Reading and losing at home to Bristol City earlier this week.
