The closest answer I can come up with is "because there isn't"!Why is there no red button tomorrow?
Championship football live: How to watch games live on Sky Sports and free match highlights
Watch Ipswich vs Huddersfield, Leeds vs Southampton and Birmingham City vs Norwich, all live on Sky Sports Football this Saturday; kick off 12.30pm; highlights of every Championship match to be shown on the Sky Sports website and app
Was it because the original date of the game was a Saturday, so they can't show rearranged games from a weekend to midweek.
don't think that was originally scheduled for a Saturday, it was one of those games between Christmas and new year, possibly a tuesday game?Wasn’t WBA a rearranged game?

I would have said this, but it seems to have been a bit more random this season, but there are rules about "displaced" games, however the West Brom game only appeared on the scheduling late on. The Millwall game isn't available to purchase on iFollow though so I suspect it won't be shown.

Because there isn’t a main English event match being televised?
There wasn't last week, it was Hearts vs Celtic. There's a Scottish match on tomorrow as well.

The answer definately is because it’s a Saturday game that’s been rearranged for midweek.
I’m sure it’s down to that useless bunch at the EFL.
Wrong
If it’s a rearranged game then both clubs have to agree for it to be shown apparently. So either us or Millwall or maybe both have said no, no idea why they wouldn’t show it though.
This is right, Millwall aren't allowing it to be shown (confirmed by PNE)

I can’t understand why a team don’t allow it to be shown - I’m assuming Sky pay teams for being on the red button ?
Maybe for what they'll earn they'll lose more on the gate...? They'll have plenty of facts and figures now regarding mid week attendances when games are on tv, and perhaps they're worried people might ask for a refund if they knew it was on tv...
