Millwall looking to gain their first Championship win in five games
Bristol City go in search of their third successive victory in the second tier
Recommended bet: Bristol City to win
A goal from Mihailo Ivanovic was enough for Millwall to claim a 1-0 win over Bristol City at Ashton Gate on December 6, but the Lions have not won since and may be vulnerable when the pair lock horns again in south London on Monday.
City, who are above their hosts only on goal difference in sixth, should have a spring in their step having won their last two games against Middlesbrough and West Brom.

Prediction
Millwall will have been delighted to gain three points from what looked a difficult trip to Bristol City three weeks ago, but not a lot has gone right for the Lions since and they could be vulnerable in Monday’s rematch.
Not only have Alex Neil’s side failed to win any of their following four matches, but they have also had to cope with a lengthy injury list and their efforts have begun to take their toll.
They looked blunt up front in a drab goalless draw at home to Ipswich on Boxing Day and City, who sit a place above the Londoners on goal difference in sixth, should be confident.
The Robins have been boosted by successive victories over Middlesbrough and West Brom and look well placed to emulate last season’s achievement of reaching the play-offs.
Only leaders Coventry City have gained more than their five away victories this season and they have maintained their strong form after getting off to a flying start with a 4-1 win at Sheffield United.
No team in the top 16 has scored fewer home goals than Millwall’s tally of 13 and there looks a decent chance the points could end up heading back down the M4.
