Middlesbrough Bristol City betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This will be a very hard and balanced game. Despite the irregular moment, Bristol City is not a bad team and in this game must dominate on some occasions. However, the big problem is lack of consistency during the ninety minutes, allowing the opponent several chances for goals. Having said this, we believe that both Middlesbrough and Bristol City can score at least one goal in this challenge.

Preview
Middlesbrough and Bristol City meet at Riverside Stadium, in a match for the 43th round of the Championship. Bristol City got a home win by (2‑1), in the last league head‑to‑head, played in 02‑12‑2017. The recent head‑to‑head record favours the away team, since they have a record of 3 wins in the last 3 matches. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, since Bristol City presents significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Middlesbrough

The home team is currently in the 7th position of the league, with 66 points won, after 19 wins, 9 draws and 14 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Nottingham Forest, by (2‑0). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Sheffield United, by (2‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses in away matches; against 9 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses at their stadium. In the last 10 home league matches Middlesbrough has a record of 6 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses, so they have won 19 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. 13 of their last 21 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. They have conceded the first goal in 21 of their 42 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 2.

Middlesbrough have played a very uneven performance of the season and their place in the play-offs of promotion is very threatened. We remember that the home team lost in the last round against Sheffield United. As usual, coach Tony Pulis should keep the team in the usual tactical design, benefiting possession of the ball and successive attacks by the runners. It is important to note that Britt Assombalonga is the best Middlesbrough scorer with 13 goals scored. For this game the coach does not count on Leadbitter due to punishment.

Confirmed Lineup: Darren Randolph, Ryan Shotton, George Friend, Daniel Ayala, Ben Gibson, Adam Clayton, Jonathan Howson, Muhamed Bešić, Stewart Downing, Patrick Bamford, Adama Traoré.
Coach: M. Carrick.

Analysis Bristol City

The away team is currently in the 8th position of the league, with 65 points won, after 17 wins, 14 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Millwall, by (2‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Birmingham City, by (3‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 8 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 26 goals scored and 17 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Bristol City has a record of 5 draws and 5 losses, so they have won 5 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 42 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 15 times and have only turned the score around in 2. In the last 21 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 9 of their 25 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

The Bristol season has also been very uneven, a bit like the opponents, and currently only has 3 victories in the last 10 games played in the championship. In this tough-packed out-of-door game, coach Lee Johnson must go into the field with a cautious, low-key strategy, exploiting only the counterattack. However, the visiting set has all the quality to take the meeting in a few moments. Bobby Reid is the best finisher of the visitors with 18 cleared goals. Apparently there are no weight absences for this game.

Confirmed Lineup: Frank Fielding, Joe Bryan, Lloyd Kelly, Aden Flint, Nathan Baker, Marlon Pack, Josh Brownhill, Korey Smith, Bobby Reid, Milan Đurić, Famara Diédhiou.
Coach: N. Pearson.
