Pick of the stats: Millwall v Norwich City

[BBC] These two sides ended last season strongly with Millwall reaching the play-offs before losing to Hull City in the semi-finals, while Norwich climbed from the relegation zone in November to finish in ninth place. Both are tipped to challenge for at least a top-six place this season. Millwall have won three of their past five league games against Norwich City (L2), as many victories as across their prior 22 attempts combined between 2002 and 2023. After winning this exact fixture 2-1 last season, Norwich City will be hoping to win successive away league games against Millwall for the first time since 1989. After beating Bristol City 2-0, Millwall will be hoping to win their opening two league games of a campaign for the first time since 2014-15. Norwich won their opening away league game of last season 2-1 at Portsmouth, though they have not won successive such matches since 2015-16/2016-17. Norwich City's Mohamed Toure has scored seven goals and assisted a further two goals in just four Championship away appearances – that includes two hat-tricks. The quickest player to 10 away goals in the competition's history is Matej Vydra who needed 10 appearances.
