Crystal Palace vs Millwall Preview and Team News

Crystal Palace Team News

Crystal Palace will put extra emphasis on the FA Cup this season, as they’re unlikely to get dragged back into a relegation scrap. They’ve dominated in each of the previous two rounds against lesser opposition, most recently recording a 2-0 win at Doncaster Rovers.

Oliver Glasner’s men will need to improve defensively ahead of this tie after allowing an average of 1.57 at Selhurst Park so far from an xGA of 1.35. Meanwhile, they’ve only kept clean sheets in 14% of their home matches.

Marc Guehi is a doubt to feature this weekend. He has a reported knee issue following the midweek win against Aston Villa. Chadi Riad, Joel Ward, and Cheick Doucouré are also out injured. 

Crystal Palace predicted lineup vs Millwall (3-4-2-1): Turner; Richards, Lacroix, Chilwell; Esse, Wharton, Hughes, Mitchell; Devenny, Kamada; Mateta.

Millwall Team News

Alex Neil will take huge confidence from his side’s recent performances ahead of this FA Cup showdown. Millwall have avoided defeat in each of their last three, and come into this weekend following a fine 1-0 win on the road against Derby County. 

However, their poor attacking record away from their fans could be a concern against Premier League opposition. Millwall have scored an average of just 0.88 in their away matches in the Championship, and have failed to score in 41% of them in the second tier.

Neil could have a number of first-team stars back in contention this weekend. Ryan Leonard is due to return. Calum Scanlon and Dan McNamara could both feature from the bench after recovering from respective hamstring and knee injuries. 

Millwall predicted lineup vs Crystal Palace (4-2-3-1): Jensen; Crama, Tanganga, Cooper, Bryan; Leonard, Saville; Coburn, Cundle, Azeez; Ivanovic.

Crystal Palace vs Millwall Prediction 

• Pick: Crystal Palace
• Odds: 1.35 (22Bet)
• Score prediction: Crystal Palace 2-0 Millwall

Crystal Palace continued to show strong form midweek, dominating Aston Villa and recording a 4-1 win. 

Glasner will be tasked with taking the club to a third FA Cup final this season. They look to have an outstanding chance against a home side that have stuttered in front of goal on the road this season. 

Before making a Crystal Palace vs Millwall prediction, note that the hosts have avoided defeat in their last five against their opponents. 

Crystal Palace vs Millwall Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Both Teams Not to Score
• Odds: 1.52 (22Bet)

It’s difficult to foresee Millwall finding the back of the net this weekend. They’ve only converted 9% of their shots on the road this season, and have failed to score in 29% of their fixtures away from The Den. 

Meanwhile, Crystal Palace conceded an xGA of just 1.35 at Selhurst Park in 2024-25 and allowed an average of just 1.57 per game.

Justin Devenny could be an interesting scoring angle. The attacking midfield has shone in the previous two rounds when handed an opportunity by Glasner. 

He’s scored once in 13 Premier League appearances, mostly from the bench. Devenny has outperformed his xG of 0.70 from an average of 1.79 shots per 90. He netted when handed a start in the previous round, and history could repeat itself.
