Middlesbrough - Queens Park Rangers predictions

A home win should not be questioned in this game. Middlesbrough are seen as huge favourites to register an easy win against Queens Park Rangers and we recommend you take the generous offer of 1.75.

It would be a minor miracle for Queens Park Rangers to win at The Boro, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 4.75 price on most online sportsbooks.

Middlesbrough were well aware their previous Championship game was going to be a proper challenge. With the odds of 2.65 offered at top bookmakers online, Middlesbrough were the underdogs from the start and can consider themselves lucky to suffer a one-goal margin Swansea City defeat.

QPR faced off against West Bromwich Albion last round, which made them the clear underdogs in an away game. They lost that bout 1:0, which is all that could be expected from such harsh circumstances.

The Boro’s previous two matches were quite uneventful, all things considered. They both featured only one goal – or no goals at all.

The visitors will likely miss the support of having a home-field advantage. Their latest 3 home games were marked by more than 5 goals in total and it remains to be seen what they can do to extend the positive trend away from home as well.

The Boro played as the visitors the last time they participated in this showdown, but they managed to win anyway. As such, it’s quite clear why they’re the favourites this Tuesday, even though the victory was with a one-goal difference.

Though the odds are against the visitors, at least they’ll be in a position to put up as much of a fight as possible. All of their lineup is accounted for in this match, with no issues from suspensions or injuries.

Despite the risks involved, the strongest prediction in terms of value is an HT/FT bet that the hosts will take lead in the second half. It’s as risky as you might expect, though the 1.93 odds offer a decent return.
