Middlesbrough Sheffield United betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most probable scenario for this match will be Sheffield United not losing.

Preview
Middlesbrough and Sheff Utd meet at Riverside Stadium, in a match for the 3rd round of the Championship. The recent head‑to‑head record favours the away team, since they have a record of 2 wins and 1 loss in the last 3 matches. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 08‑03‑2022, and ended in a (4‑1) win by Sheffield United. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, since Sheff Utd presents significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Middlesbrough

The home team is currently in the 20th position of the league, with 1 point won. In their debut, they tied in a home match against West Bromwich Albion, by (1‑1). In the second round, they lost in an away match against Queens Park Rangers, by (3‑2). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses in away matches; against 8 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a home loss against Barnsley by (0‑1). Middlesbrough has won 4, tied 1 and lost 5 of the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Middlesbrough start this game on the back of a 0-1 defeat at Barnsley in the League Cup. In their last league match, they lost 3-2 against QPR. For this home game, the coach Chris Wilder is expected to play in a 3-5-2 formation, focusing on defensive organisation and counter-attacks through the corridors: Duncan Watmore is very fast and competent in finishing. There are no major absences for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Zack Steffen, Darragh Lenihan, Patrick James Coleman McNair, Anfernee Dijksteel, Dael Fry, Ryan Giles, Riley McGree, Jonathan Howson, Isaiah Jones, Chuba Akpom, Marcus Forss.
Coach: K. Hellberg.

Analysis Sheff Utd

The away team is currently in the 7th position of the league, with 3 points won. In their debut they lost in an away match against Watford, by (1‑0). In the second round, they won in a home match against Millwall, by (2‑0). 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 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 10 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 26 goals scored and 6 conceded. In their last match, for the League Cup, they got an away loss against West Bromwich Albion by (1‑0). In the last 10 away matches Sheff Utd has won 4, tied 1 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches.

Sheffield United go into this match on the back of a 1-0 defeat on their trip to West Bromwich Albion in the League Cup. In their last league game, the visitors beat Millwall by 2-0. Now, for this away match, manager Paul Heckingbottom should adopt a similar strategy to the last match, the 4-4-2, favouring possession and organised attacks: Sander Berge is the main organiser of the game. Out of this game are Adam Davies, Oliver McBurnie, Chris Basham, Jayden Bogle, Jack Robinson and Thomas Doyle, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Wes Foderingham, John Egan, Rhys Norrington-Davies, Max Lowe, George Baldock, Anel Ahmedhodzic, Oliver Norwood, Sander Berge, John Fleck, Iliman Ndiaye, Patrick McCarthy.
Coach: P. Heckingbottom.
