Middlesbrough take on the visitors Cardiff in the postponed round 39 match of English Championship. The match will be played on Wednesday, April 27th Riverside Stadium (Middlesbrough).
The hosts have lost all chances of getting into the playoffs. After the draw with Swansea, this is finally clear. Bookmakers once again put Middlesbrough as a clear favorite, but at the expense of what? Motivation? But what about the latest results? The team could not win even once in five rounds and scored only once. What difference does it make that the opponents were the three best teams of the Championship? There were also Hull City and Swansea. In theory, there is hope, but a handicap of five points and a postponed duel. And three defeats in a row at home at Riverside. Wilder may be looking for a new job.

Cardiff are in solid conditions as in their case not fighting for survival can be considered normal. The visitors met with about the same-level opponents as the “Boro”, but at least Cardiff had scored. There is no burden of responsibility for the result and position in the league can’t be treated. In eight away matche in a row, the Blues were able to score. They lost quite a lot matches in 2022, but only one defeat was by more than one goal. Their defense got a little better. Morison said that next season he needs 10-15 new players. The composition needs to be completely changed.
The hosts were suffering not just from a recession, but from a catastrophe. At the same time, there seems to be no special complaints about the football, but Boro can’t convert their own chances. The hosts are in the role of catching up, but if Sheffield beats QPR in the next match, then everything will be in vain. We strongly doubt whether Middlesbrough will be able not only to win, but also to do it with a two-goal difference. Here it would be worth talking about another loss of points.
Prediction for the match: Cardiff to win with +1.0 handicap.
