Middlesbrough - Bristol City betting tips and odds

Though Middlesbrough are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

It’s highly unlikely that Bristol City will manage to get some points this round. The Boro are at a considerable advantage, so even a draw would be a success for the visitors.

Although Middlesbrough played as visitors in the previous round of the Championship, they had reasons to feel optimistic going into that game. The odds were slightly in their favour going in. However, their outstanding performance caught even their supporters by surprise, leading to an HT/FT victory with a considerable goal difference.

Bristol’s narrow 0:1 loss at home against Sheffield United in the previous round was quite predictable, considering online sportsbooks priced a home win at 3.45.

Middlesbrough have registered 8 goals in their three previous games, so we can expect a lot of action this Saturday.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Saturday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the bet365 priced at 1.91 odds.
