Contents
Both Teams to Score Prediction: No
Preston North End have been in trouble fancying their chances on the scoring end as they have failed to hit the target in three of the last four visits. The Boro have made enough preparation defensively by keeping four clean sheets in the previous four meetings at home. On the contrary, Middlesbrough has not missed the target at home since the start of November. With that said, we predict only the home side to get on the score sheet in this game.
Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals
Middlesbrough has hit the target 12 times in the last five outings but the visitors don’t seem prepared in this regard. The Lilywhites have hit the target twice in the last four away outings, keeping two clean sheets as well. On the contrary, the Boro have also conceded only two goals in the last five games at home. Three of the last five H2Hs of these teams at Middlesbrough have ended with low-scoring totals and we predict the same trend to be continued in this duel.
Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to Middlesbrough
The attacking line of Middlesbrough has been impressive as they have hit the target more than once in four of the last five hosting duels. The Lilywhites have ended their momentum of consecutive clean sheets by allowing a goal in the first half against Rotherham United. Preston North End have also conceded goals in all of the previous four visiting meetings with the Boro. Given the scoring flow of the hosts, we expect them to keep a lead of 2-0 in this game.
