5' With 0 assists to his name this season, Murray Wallace is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Millwall FC.
10' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Millwall FC that had 397 games and scored 425 goals.

25' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
30' Millwall FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
35' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
40' Cardiff City FC is showing some good football. However, Cardiff City FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Perry Ng made 97 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

53' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Murray Wallace.
54' The supporters are chanting for Isaak Davies. He replaces Mark Harris on 54 minute.
59' It looks like no one’s ball. Millwall FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
64' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Ryan Wintle suffering a number of foals already.
68' The Millwall FC manager makes a substitution. Billy Mitchell departs to be replaced by George Saville.
