When West Ham play Millwall at London Stadium and The Den as EFL announce 2026-27 Championship fixtures

West Ham United have learned their schedule for the 2026-2027 campaign.

The Hammers will be eyeing an immediate return to the Premier League following last season's heart-wrenching relegation.

Keeping Nuno Espirito Santo has certainly boosted those efforts, and the Portuguese manager will feel confident in his own abilities to do so.

However, for supporters, they will be looking out for the key dates and one particular fixture - Millwall.

Relegation has meant these two bitter rivals will face up against each other once more.

And here is when they will go head to head in the 2026-2027 season.

London Stadium set to host first Millwall game in

Since West Ham have moved into London Stadium, it has yet to host the Dockers Derby.

In fact, the last time the Hammers played the Lions was back in 2012, where West Ham took the bragging rights in a 2-1 win.

However, with both sides in the same league once more that 14-year wait for a derby will end.

The EFL have announced the full set of 2026-2027 Championship fixtures and here are the dates you have been waiting for.

Ahead of next season, the Irons are set to travel to the Den first with an away fixture date set for 19 September.

And for the first-ever home tie at London Stadium, they will host Millwall on 20 February 2027.

Both games are currently pencilled in for a 3 pm kick-off.

Both fixtures are sure to be intense battles on the pitch, with the atmosphere likely to be the same.

And what about the other London derbies?

Of course, while Millwall is the headline derby, there are others for supporters to look forward to.

Both QPR and Charlton Athletic will be in the Championship next season, providing another set of intense fixtures for the Irons.

The two games against QPR will land on 10 October at London Stadium, with West Ham travelling to Loftus Road on 27 February 2027.

West Ham will be hoping for a repeat of their 2026 FA Cup tie in both fixtures, where they secured a 2-1 win.

When it comes to facing Charlton, the Addicks make their way to London Stadium on 22 August 2026. While West Ham travel to the Valley on 2 March 2027.

The tie at London Stadium will be just the second game between the two since 2007, after West Ham defeated Charlton 3-0 in the League Cup in 2020.

Of course, fixture dates and times will be subject to change due to potential changes for TV scheduling.
