Millwall vs Middlesbrough tips and predictions

Intriguing clash in Championship

The jury is out on this one but you can make a case for all outcomes. The away team has the edge when you consider their chances and the prices available.

Backers of the away win will be aware of the hosts' current form. Millwall cannot be relied on if you're looking for value. They've lost 8 of their last 14 matches. These reverses haven't been helped by their recent goal count. They've been goalless in 7 of their last 14 games and that isn't anything like the requisite form for this task. They conceded two or more goals in 7 of their last 11 games which lends some additional support for the away win.

Middlesbrough have showed what what they are capable of on their day. If the away team puts some decent passages together they should be the ones celebrating come full-time. They have conceded only 1 goal during their latest 3 games.

If they don't go all out and get the win don't rule out a draw. It would be nonsense to argue that the favourites are a lock here. It's perfectly credible that the two sides cancel each other out in a battle of attrition. It isn't difficult to see a clean sheet here. The No BTTS bet seems sensible. And in the total goals line, it's Under 1.5 picked as the best play considering the prices available there.

Millwall have only won once in the last 9 matches between these two.
