Last season Middlesbrough were 4th and proceeded to the playoffs, but they were beaten by Norwich City and stayed in the Championship. This one, Middlesbrough have been playing impressive football. Still it seems remarkable ending of the Championship awaits. Karanka’s side have recorded 26 wins, 9 draws and 9 defeats. They scored 60 goals and conceded 28 ones. Moreover, Middlesbrough are now 2nd in the table with 87 points earned. We should mention that Boro tied Ipswich Town last matchday so that Burnley managed to take the first spot.
Still Birmingham City have advantage over Middlesbrough in the head-to-head record. Moreover, the two sides ended in the draw their first game earlier this season. We should mention, Boro managed to win only 1 game at Birmingham since 2003. Middlesbrough will strive to victory, but the hosts aren’t easy beats.
Prediction: both teams to score.
