Middlesbrough take on the visitors Leeds in the round 44 match of English Championship. The match will be played on Monday, April 22nd at Riverside Stadium (Middlesbrough).
Middlesbrough bet on Michael Carrick after the start of the previous campaign, and he not only lifted the new charges out of decline but also took them to the playoffs. This season, the club has been mostly successful in the League Cup, reaching the semifinals and even defeating Chelsea there. However, the second decisive match was lost heavily, and their Championship results this season have been modest, with almost no chance of making it to the top six. Although recently they have managed not to lose even to Ipswich, with whom they ended in a 1-1 draw last Saturday.

Leeds risks complicating their return to the Premier League. The Peacocks finally managed to get out of the Championship during Bielsa's time and even establish themselves in the Premier League. However, in 2023, after a three-year stay in the top flight, they had to return to the second tier of English football. They didn't want to get stuck there, and it seemed that betting on Farke worked out. Despite some setbacks, they managed to consolidate themselves among the leaders by spring. However, firstly, Leicester and Ipswich performed just as well, and secondly, at the crucial moment, the Whites suddenly faltered. They lost to Coventry and Blackburn, with a goalless draw at home against Sunderland. Despite the weakness of their opponents, it's hard to surpass anyone with such results when you're fighting for sole leadership.
In December, The Peacocks ended with a 3-2 win at home. This was already the third victory for the flock in head-to-head confrontations. The Riversiders are unlikely to be set up for a fight. However, the visitors should have done serious homework during the break. Let's bet on their away win.
Prediction for the match: Leeds to win.
