Millwall 3-0 Norwich result, stats and report

Wrexham put three past Millwall at The Den without the home side registering a single shot on target. This was not bad luck. This was unacceptable.

Ethan Galbraith scored inside 13 minutes to give Stoke City a 1-0 victory over Norwich, ending a run of five consecutive Championship defeats despite Norwich controlling 71 per cent of possession and creating the better chances across the ninety.

A ninth-minute goal settled this Carabao Cup second-round tie at the Abbey Stadium, with Millwall's defensive structure absorbing everything Cambridge could throw at them despite the hosts generating the more dangerous attacking patterns in the second half.

Norwich took the points at Cardiff City Stadium with a 25th-minute headed goal, but the possession numbers and shot map raise real questions about how each side set up for this Carabao Cup tie.

Norwich arrive at Carrow Road on Saturday having lost both of their opening Championship fixtures and conceded five goals in the process. Bolton Wanderers, sitting ninth after two games, offer a structured test that could expose exactly what is going wrong for the Canaries at the back.

Millwall arrive at The Den in fine early-season form having won both of their opening Championship fixtures, while West Ham travel to south London carrying the weight of a deeply troubled away record. Something has to give.

Middlesbrough host a Norwich side carrying four long-term absentees and no points from their opening two Championship games. The structure of both defences will decide this one.

Blackburn host Millwall at Ewood Park on Saturday carrying a significant injury burden and a home record that already reads one defeat from one game. Millwall arrive unbeaten but untested, and the structural questions surrounding both sides make this a genuinely intriguing Championship fixture.
