Match Statistics: Norwich City vs. Millwall

Norwich City is set to host Millwall, entering the match with a recent performance in the Championship that has been less than impressive. The Canaries have recorded three losses and one draw in their last four league fixtures. Millwall, in contrast, concluded their own period without a win in a notable fashion on Saturday, securing a victory against Blackburn and thereby halting Rovers’ six-match winning streak. Norwich City maintains an undefeated record in their last 20 home league encounters with Millwall, comprising 13 wins and 7 draws, a streak that has been unbroken since a 3-0 defeat in 1968. Millwall is seeking to achieve consecutive league victories against Norwich, a feat not accomplished since 2001, when they secured a 4-0 win at Carrow Road, marking the second of two successive wins. Norwich City has experienced defeats in their last five league matches played on Boxing Day, managing to score only a single goal across these fixtures. Notably, two of their most recent three victories on Boxing Day were against Millwall, with scores of 2-0 in 2009 and 6-1 in 2014. Millwall has remained undefeated in their last six Boxing Day matches, recording four wins and two draws, a sequence that began after a 1-0 loss to Walsall in 2015. Josh Sargent has found the net in both of his two home Championship appearances for Norwich when playing against Millwall, accumulating a total of three goals.
