History of the Millwall v Sheffield Wednesday fixture

Sheff. Wed. pack their bags to visit Millwall at The Den on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The The Owls will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 11 and win only 3 of the 19 games.

The previous match played between the two at The Den was within the last three years, in March 2003, with Millwall running out comfortable 3 - 0 winners in a League Division One match.
