Millwall - Oxford United predictions

The home team is the obvious choice for anyone looking to bet on favourites. The match is not completely one-sided, though, which is why you may actually get worthwhile returns.

The situation is crystal clear from the current perspective. Given the strength of the home team and the fact Oxford United are given 5.24 betting odds to win, a conclusion is not difficult to reach. Anything but a home win would be an incredible surprise.

It’s fair to say Millwall demonstrated their character in the last Championship clash. They held it level at the break and after the full 90 minutes against a tough rival and managed to record an important draw (Coventry City).

Oxford United’s performance was quite impressive in their latest game against Plymouth Argyle. The 2:0 victory itself may have been predictable considering they were the hosts in a favourable matchup, but the overwhelming success which they achieved it is worth noting.

Looking strictly at the home side, this match can be a solid choice for a bet like the Under 5 Goals market. Their previous two games at The Den ended up confirming even Under 5 Goals.

Oxford United’s defence seems to be their most prominent weakness at the moment. Having allowed 6 goals in their previous 3 games, it might be a good time to look at Over 3.5 Goals betting markets when it comes to their next match.

These two teams already clashed multiple times this season, and neither managed to come out on top in any of those games. Most bookmakers see Millwall as the favourites, though, so they’ll want to use the extra drive of being the hosts to finally earn a conclusive result.

Though the odds are against the visitors, at least they’ll be in a position to put up as much of a fight as possible. All of their lineup is accounted for in this match, with no issues from suspensions or injuries.

Though a Home Win bet is the best offer in terms of value, the outcome is far from guaranteed. Though there’s a moderate risk involved, the 1.73 odds offered at William Hill are worth it.
