Middlesbrough vs Huddersfield Predictions and Free Betting Tips from expert tipsters when they go head-to-head in the English Championship on Saturday, 19 August 2023.
Middlesbrough are set to host Huddersfield at Riverside Stadium for their upcoming league fixture. Middlesbrough enter the contest following a string of subpar performances. They sit 24th in the table after a 3-0 defeat to Coventry City in their previous league match.
Their opponents, Huddersfield, too, come into the game with a series of poor results. They remain 23rd in the standings following a 1-0 defeat to Leicester City last time out.
The last time these two clubs met was earlier this month. Middlesbrough managed to deliver a 3-2 win that day.
In the last ten meetings between the two teams. Middlesbrough has won five times, there have been two draws, and Huddersfield has won three times.
We are counting on Middlesbrough to pull off a win here. The hosts would be in better shape for this one. Given their recent League Cup success over this opponent, as well as their fine home league record in the league for the past several months.
Huddersfield’s recent results, on the other hand, have been substantially worse. Their past three matches have all ended in defeats.
We expect goals in this match. In both of Middlesbrough’s last two matches, there have been more than 2.5 goals scored. Also, two of Huddersfield’s past three matches have ended with over 2.5 goals.
In addition, the last two h2h meetings between these two have had over 2.5 goals. By the looks of things, a high-scoring affair is expected this time out.
Neither of these two teams has had a solid defensive record in recent weeks. The hosts have failed to keep clean sheets in each of their past three matches. While the visitors also failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last three matches this season.
Thus, the chances are quite high for goals to come from either end of the pitch.
The bookies have Middlesbrough as the favourite, and backing them at 1.65 is a promising bet given Middlesbrough’s strong performance in the Cup fixture against this opponent and their strong home record leading up to the contest. Furthermore, Huddersfield has underperformed in all recent games.
A victory for Middlesbrough at 1.65 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.
For the second tip, over 2.5 goals and BTTS at 2.10 odds seems very promising. Considering both teams recent goal involvement in their matches and their past results.
