Millwall vs Dagenham & Redbridge FA Cup Preview, Prediction, Team News & Lineups

Millwall welcome Dagenham & Redbridge in Monday’s FA Cup third-round tie and you can find the preview, prediction, team news and predicted lineups below.

Millwall vs Dagenham & Redbridge Preview

After a strong run in the Championship for Millwall in the early stages of the season, which included a nine match unbeaten streak between October 5th and November 30th – recent form has failed to impress.

The Lions and Neil Harris parted ways in early December after a run of poor results and former Sunderland boss, Alex Neil, has taken the reins. 

So far, the Scotsman has picked up a draw and a defeat from his opening two games – being held by Sheffield Wednesday in the most recent fixture.

Millwall have never won the FA Cup and their only notable run came in 2003/04, as the Lions were beaten 3-0 by Manchester United in the final.

As for their opponents, the FA Cup is still a fairly new venture as they first appeared in the competition in 1992/93 and have never made it past the fourth round.

The non-league side will be looking to cause a huge upset against a team three leagues above them but have won just two of their last seven in all competitions.

The winner of this match will go on to face Leeds United at Elland Road, who are sitting pretty at the top of the Championship.

Millwall vs Dagenham & Redbridge Team News

Millwall have a list of absentees for the FA Cup clash, as Aidomo Emakhu, Josh Coburn Duncan Watmore are all set to miss out.

However, Danny McNamara, Calum Scanton and Jake Cooper are all back in first-team training after missing several weeks through injury – but they are unlikely to feature on Monday.

Romain Esse is fit and available but may not be included as he nears a move to Crystal Palace this January.

As for Dagenham & Redbridge, Sam Ling was forced off with injury against Forest Green Rovers and is unlikely to travel to Millwall.

Leading marksman, Dion Pereira, has been out of action since Boxing Day and will face a late fitness test to feature against Millwall.

Millwall vs Dagenham & Redbridge Predicted Lineups

Millwall: Jensen; Bryan, Wallace, Tanganga, Leonard; Saville, De Norre, Azeez, Honeyman; Langstaff, Ivanovic

Dagenham & Redbridge: Justham; Kalambayi, Rutherford, Rendall; N’Guessan, Hessenthaler, Phipps, Remy; Stephenson, Rees, Hill

Millwall vs Dagenham & Redbridge Prediction

Millwall are favourites on UK betting sites due to their league superiority and new manager, Alex Neil will be hoping to avoid a huge cup upset.

With that in mind, we expect the hosts to pick up a comfortable victory against Dagenham & Redbridge – while keeping a clean sheet.

Prediction: Millwall 3-0 Dagenham & Redbridge
