- Team form: Millwall have won their opening home game and kept a clean sheet in the Championship 2026-2027.
- Away form: Wrexham have lost two and tied one of their last three away games across all current competitions.
- History: The Lions beat the Red Dragons 2-0 away from home in the Championship 2025-2026, six months ago.
Tight game anticipated at The Den
Millwall should edge a tight contest at The Den on Wednesday when they face a Wrexham side that have made an inconsistent start to the new Championship campaign.
The Lions sit top of the table with 6 points from their 2 games and the Red Dragons are 15th with 2 points from 3 matches, although they are yet to win away from home in 2026-2027 having drawn their only away game so far. Wrexham are unbeaten on the road this season and Phil Parkinson's side are still unbeaten on their travels in this campaign, but the Red Dragons did come away with nothing from a home game against Birmingham City on Saturday.
Lions have that little extra bite
Millwall, who are coming off the back of five straight wins in all current competitions, are looking for a sixth here and look much the more likely of the two sides to gain all three points at the end of this one.
Alex Neil's men got the better of the Welsh outfit 2-0 at The Racecourse six months ago and the head-to-head record is level at 1-1 over the last 2 meetings, so we'll take the home side for the win at 1.9 here as the odds for the visitors are at 4.0 and the draw at 3.5 looks a bit generous. But the away odds of 4.0 on them seem way too short given the home record of the opponents.
Wrexham wing-backs may get overrun
Tactical setup:
Backing Millwall to win to nil looks a solid option here because the hosts have already shown that they have the bite to get the job done at home this season. Alex Neil has drilled his troops into a compact, low-block, counter-attacking unit that stays narrow and breaks fast in transition, which could suit a cagey chess match against a more vertical Wrexham side that operates with width in their wing-backs and can leave holes to be exploited.
Form and attacking threats:
- Neil's side have won their last two home games and kept clean sheets on each occasion, while Wrexham have drawn one of their three away matches.
- Josh Coburn has started the season in hot form with 2 goals from his first 2 Championship 2026-2027 games and he gives Millwall a sharp edge up top, although Tairyk Arconte has also added a burst of form by scoring 2 of the team's 6 goals across all competitions in their last 5 matches.
Red Dragons can be blunt away
Wrexham have had a frustrating start to the season with no wins in their last 5 games, although they did score a goal in a 1-2 home defeat to Birmingham City in their most recent Championship 2026-2027 outing. Sam Smith has been the team's most prolific finisher over the same period, having struck 2 of Wrexham's 5 goals in their last 5 across all of their current competitions.
Callum Doyle is their top scorer in the Championship 2026-2027 so far with 1, while Daniel Imray has chipped in with 1 assist to keep the build-up ticking over at the very least.
