Middlesbrough - Chelsea: Form Analysis

Hosts Middlesbrough haven't had a great run coming into this game. They are coming right from defeat by another Premier League side, Aston Villa in the FA Cup third round. In that encounter, which ended 1-0, Middlesbrough suffered a second straight home loss. Trooping to their third straight home match, Middlesbrough will hope for a better return. Three losses in four matches will however not be the best prep going into this game. in two of these losses, they also failed to score. Meanwhile, the Championship side has no clean sheet in the last four matches in all competitions. As they seek to overcome Chelsea and book a place in the Wembley final, Middlesbrough are gunning for League Cup number two. They did win once, in 2004, the third time they reached the final. Once in their three final appearances, in 1998, they lost 2-0 to Chelsea. Since reaching the 2004 final and winning, Boro have reached the quarters just five times.

Chelsea are coming into this game on a good run and have also dominated earlier meetings with Middlesbrough. In their last nine matches against Middlesbrough, they won without conceding. The Blues still have fond memories of their last visit to the Riverside Stadium, when they won 2-0 in the FA Cup in 2022. With their stuttering form in the Premier League, this looks like a viable route back to Europe for Chelsea. As a result, we expect them to handle this game with utmost seriousness. A sixth League Cup title will also be welcome, in light of how things have gone at Chelsea the last two seasons. They last lifted it in 2015, beating Tottenham Hotspur, then coached by their current manager, Mauricio Pochettino. However, Chelsea have lost two finals after that triumph, albeit on post match penalties. In their last two cup matches against Middlesbrough, Chelsea won 2-0. They also come into this game unbeaten in 27 cup games against lower league opposition. Ahead of this encounter, they thrashed Preston North End 4-0 in the third round of the FA Cup.

Middlesbrough & Chelsea Squad Analysis

Middlesbrough have no injury concerns reported after their late defeat at home to Aston Villa. They also have no players suspended for this game and this should impact positively on their confidence. Josh Coburn, who has scored twice in the last three matches will stand out here as Boro look to shock Chelsea. At Chelsea, Cole Palmer has proven a big catch since arriving from Manchester City. The 21-year-old has eight goals so far and is well settled at Stamford Bridge. He will be among the key players in this match. Chelsea are however grappling with a long injury list. They have Wesley Fofana, Trevoh Chalobah, Carney Chukwuemeka, Reece James, Roberto Sanchez, Marc Cucurella and Romeo Lavia all out with injury. Meanwhile, Nicolas Johnson is away on international duty and Benoit Badiashile, Christopher Nkunku and Ben Chilwell are major doubts. Andrey Santos will also not feature here as he is cup tied, having earlier represented Nottingham Forest in this competition.

Middlesbrough vs Chelsea - Other Interesting Predictions

Cole Palmer to score

Odds 2.87

A top player to watch in this game will be Chelsea’s Cole Palmer. The England international has settled well since joining from Manchester City and will be core to the Blues’ plans. This being a key game we expect Palmer to start and he’s in with a chance to score. We will back him for any time goal scorer.

Over 2.5 goals

Odds 1.61

Chelsea’s last four matches have all returned over 2.5 goals. The Blues have scored three or more in the last two and their confidence is getting back. This game presents another chance to build their confidence, which will be manifested in attack. Middlesbrough aren’t the best defensively, and two of their last three games had over 2.5 goals. We also expect this game to have over 2.5 goals.
