Middlesbrough are set to host Millwall at Riverside Stadium to kick off their Championship season. Middlesbrough has enjoyed a decent preseason thus far. However, after narrowly missing out on promotion and being eliminated in the Semifinals of the play offs the previous season, they will want to get off to a strong start.
Their opponents, Millwall, too, have begun the season with a string of decent preseason performances in an attempt to improve on their eighth-place position from last season.
The last time these two clubs met was in January. Middlesbrough managed to deliver a 1-0 win that day.
In the ten meetings between the two teams. Middlesbrough has won three times, there have been five draws, and Millwall has won twice.
Furthermore, Middlesbrough are on a seven-game unbeaten streak against this opposition at this venue. They have also won this fixture on four of those occasions.
We are counting on Middlesbrough to pull off a win here. They are in superior form heading into this one. Their last two matches have both seen improvements in both performance and goal-scoring form.
Millwall, on the other hand, has seen a little drop in recent form while also conceding two goals in a defeat last time out.
