Middlesbrough vs Birmingham City: Top Free Betting Tips

Following the winless streak, Middlesbrough go up against Birmingham City in the next fixture of the Championship on Wednesday, 5 October. The Blues come into this game after confirming the consecutive draws in the recent league games.

Middlesbrough to Win

Birmingham City are undefeated in the previous four games and has won two of them. The Blues have also registered two victories in the last three visits, losing zero. However, Middlesbrough has been unable to make a win in the last three outings, conceding two defeats. The Blues have also dominated the Boro in the recent H2Hs as they are unbeaten in the last three visiting meetings and won the previous two in a row. Hence, we back Middlesbrough to add three points to their name in this game.

Under 2.5 Goals

None of the last seven H2Hs at the home of Middlesbrough have witnessed a high-scoring total. The Boro have found the back of the net only four times in the previous five attempts. On the contrary, Birmingham City managed their unbeaten streak by scoring only five goals in the previous four outings. So, the chances are high to see the same trend of low-scoring totals in this meeting.

Both Teams to Score – No

Birmingham City have succeeded to hit the target in four of the previous five attempts. But the Boro have not been the same as they ended the previous two games without scoring a goal. The Blues will also be confident over the two clean sheets they got in the last four matches. Birmingham City also kept clean sheets in the previous two visiting H2Hs against the Boro, scoring twice. Given the current stats, we expect to see the repetition of the recent meetings, ending without a BTTS pattern.

Middlesbrough vs Birmingham City: Team News and Match Preview

Middlesbrough

The Boro lost the last game against Coventry with a narrow trial of 1-0, conceding the goal in the 17th minute. Getting a terrible start to the campaign, Middlesbrough are buried at the bottom end of the table, having only two wins in 11 attempts. Right-back Darnell Fisher will be off the field in this game due to medical issues.

Birmingham City

The Blues were able to restrict the league leaders Sheffield United to a 1-1 draw at their home in the last game. Having a total of three wins and four draws, Birmingham City are fifteenth on the points table. The club gaffer John Eustace will be disappointed to have five players on the injury list before this duel.
