After ending last season on a five-game winning streak, there were high hopes that Millwall could return to the same form in 2024-25.
Instead, the first six weeks of the campaign have been a struggle, with the Lions picking up just one win and five points.
On the bright side, Neil Harris' side appear to have turned the corner, with the aforementioned five points coming from their last four games.
As well as a 3-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday, there were draws away at Hull City and Queens Park Rangers.
Furthermore, Millwall have only conceded twice in that quartet of games, and neither of those goals came in the second half.
Preston, meanwhile, are still adjusting to life under Paul Heckingbottom, who arrived at Deepdale having lost his first two games in charge.
Like their next opponents, they have since taken five points from their last four games, although the two draws have come after the international break.
Preston will be more than happy with either result, however, given that they were away at Middlesbrough and at home to unbeaten rivals Blackburn Rovers.
In the long term, however, this is a team that has gone eight games without an away win since 16 March.
Millwall will be without the services of Billy Mitchell, Tom Bradshaw and Josh Coburn.
Harris is likely to stick with the same side that started against QPR, although Mihailo Ivanovic could be handed a full debut in the final third.
Heckingbottom will have to make at least one change to his Preston XI after Sam Greenwood was sent off against Blackburn.
Duane Holmes or Will Keane are likely to be recalled in the final third, with the rest of the team possibly remaining the same.
With Milan Osmajic under investigation for biting Blackburn's Owen Beck, the striker may not feature in this contest.
Millwall possible starting lineup:
Jensen; Leonard, Cooper, Tanganga, Bryan; Saville, De Norre; Esse, Honeyman, Watmore; Langstaff
Preston North End possible starting lineup:
Woodman; Potts, Storey, Lindsay, Hughes; Whiteman, McCann; Frokjaer-Jensen, Holmes, Bowler; Riis
Prediction:Millwall 1-2 Preston North End
