Leicester City will be away to Millwall in the third round of the FA Cup at the Den on Saturday. The Championship leaders have reached the fourth round of this tournament in six out of their last seven attempts and will be confident of a comfortable victory this weekend.
Leicester are enjoying a good run in the Championship and will be eyeing promotion at the end of the season. They are currently on a 10-game unbeaten run and will be extremely hard to beat for opponents Millwall.
Millwall, on the other hand, are struggling in 15th in the league standings. After recording just one win in 13 matches between October towards the end of December, the team has managed to bounce back and will be hoping to claim their fourth win in a row when Leicester come visiting.
