They are without a win in their last 6 in the championship, all be it 3 of those games ending in draws. Palace beginnng to look safe in the playoffs, but need to keep the results ticking over. They haven't won in their last 3 away games, but before that they won 3 on the trot. Millwall away seems the perfect game to get that away form back on track.

I fancy this game to go under 2.5 goals, looking at Millwall home record they have scored only 8 and conceded 21. On the other side Crystal Palace is more effective scoring 22 while conceding 21. I don't know it looks like a tight match to me and I see probable scores of 0:0, 0:1,1:1

What do you think?

Elsewhere I really like Watford to see of Brighton as well as Leeds to get 3 points from Leicester. Correct me if I am wrong but I think Leeds has not won away from home 4-5 matches in a row?

Yeah the last time Leeds took 3 points at Plymouth, since then they lost to Brighton, drew with Ipswich and Derby

Agreed this game could well go under 2.5 goals. I think palace should have enough to win this one though, so hoping they can take it 1-0.

Interesting...hmmmmmmmmmm the last time Leicester lost was away to Plymouth and the last time Leeds won away was to Plymouth. I am really undecided about this match and it could well be a draw again. I will skip it

1 bet for me in the Championship today lads and I expect my selection to recoup the losses midweek I lost on them:

Watford to beat Brighton - 9pts Win at 2.10 Betfair
I have Watford down as odds on shots so am very happy to take some of the 2.10 on offer with Betfair. They are on fire at the moment whereas Brighton continue to struggle badly in this division. My only slight worry is Watfords confidence may have been dented after losing 2-1 to Leeds midweek however they were leading 1-0 before going down to 9 men which obviously was a huge blow and in the end cost them the match. If they can restore their confidence and play football again they should hold far too much guns for an underpar Brighton.

Brighton v Watford
Even though Leeds brought Watfords winning streak to an end, Watford were leading and had 2 sent off. I think they will get back to winning ways today against relegation certs Brighton. Brighton only have 1 point from 5 games and I think Watford will get back to winning ways here/
Watford 10/10 @ 2.15 sportingodds
Norwich v Derby
Norwich won their last game 3-0 with Earnshaw scoring 2 and Huckerby the other, I expect these two to be a great partnership up front and think Earnshaw is a quality player at this level.
Norwich captain Craig Fleming is a doubt after sustaining his second injury in just over a fortnight. The defender had recovered from a hip knock but now has a slight groin problem, so Dutchman Jurgen Colin stands by to replace him.
Derby striker Mounir El Hamdaoui looks unlikely to feature after suffering a groin strain against Leicester. Fellow forward Danny Graham is nursing a dead leg but should travel and Inigo Idiakez is back after suspension.
Norwich 10/10 @ 1.9 premierbet

Selection	Draw
Date	2006-02-18
Event	Brighton v Watford
Bookmaker/Price	Betdaq @ 3.40 (Back)
Reasoning	After suffering a very bad loss in six-pointer against Leeds it will be too difficult for Watford to regain their good play. Brighton also far from their best, rare wins, bad form...so this should be a draw, probably low scoring.

Watford win 1-0.
