Crystal Palace vs Millwall prediction

Crystal Palace lots multiple commitments this season what with the Premier League, defending the FA Cup, competing in Europe and also the League Cup, which is their focus here. A spicy London derby is in prospect between the Eagles and Championship club Millwall, who overcame Newport County and Coventry City to reach this stage.

Oliver Glasner should make changes to his starting line-up who drew 0-0 at home to Sunderland last time out and whilst this may give them more impetus in attack, it could also open the door for Millwall. With that in mind, a result is hard to call in this one and backing the contest to be decided on penalties following a draw may prove to be a shrewd move.
