• Millwall have won nine of their last 12 fixtures

• Wrexham have gone three league games without a victory

• Recommended bet: Millwall to win

Millwall face a high profile London derby away to Crystal Palace in the third round of the Carabao Cup, but the Championship is their priority and full focus will be on the home match with Wrexham which offers the opportunity to build on a strong start to the campaign.

The Londoners are canny operators in the transfer market and should have cash to spend after selling defender Japhet Tanganga to Sheffield United.

Alex Neil’s side have taken six points from three league games and will fancy their chances against recently promoted Wrexham, who are still adjusting to life at the higher level.

Wrexham opened up with two straight league defeats and were left bitterly disappointed last weekend after squandering a two-goal lead in a 2-2 draw at home to Sheffield Wednesday.

They were 3-2 midweek winners at Preston in the Carabao Cup, but will be anxious to address their poor league form before the two-week break.

Team news

Millwall are moving forwards without Japhet Tanganga, who has completed a move to Championship rivals Sheffield United, and they must be patient with Alfie Doughty (hamstring) and Lukas Jensen (Achilles), who are not expected to feature until some time after the international break.

Kieffer Moore shook off an ankle knock to come off the bench and score Wrexham's winning goal in Tuesday’s 3-2 victory away to Preston in the Carabao Cup second round.

However, Andy Cannon (knee) is out long term and Josh Windass, Liberato Cacace and George Thomason remain on the sidelines.

Prediction

Millwall are among a number of Championship clubs with play-off aspirations and they can round off a strong first month of the season by defeating Wrexham at the Den.

The Lions came on strong towards the end of last season and finished just two points outside the top six.

They are hoping for further improvement and have demonstrated positive signs by winning four of five games across all competitions.

Alex Neil’s side were 2-1 winners at home to Coventry in their midweek Carabao Cup second-round tie and they can pile on the misery for new look Wrexham, who are facing a battle to consolidate in the second tier.

Wrexham have been busy in the transfer market, but they have taken just one point from a possible nine and their poor start looks set to continue.
