Middlesbrough vs Norwich Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Steve Ashfield | in Championship Predictions
Middlesbrough are seventh in the Championship but only three points behind opponents Norwich City. Boro have only lost one of their 11 league games this season. The trouble is that they are the Championship draw experts. Six out of 11 have ended all square and with this being a tight league, those draws may well prove costly. Boro come into this game unbeaten in their last ten league matches. Their only loss was in their opening league game of the season, going down 1-0 at Watford. Their defence is doing well at present with no goals conceded in the last four league fixtures and just five in 11 this season, the best record in the division. Up fron though, just one goal has been scored by them in the last three. In fact, both their last two league games have ended goalless but both were away games. Overall, they have had three 0-0 league draws and only one out of 11 played in the Championship this season have had over 2.5 goals scored in them.
The clubs relegated from the Premier League last season are all doing well back in the Championship. Going into this latest set of games, they are all in the top five. Norwich City are in third despite beginning the season with only four points from their first four games. Since then, they have won five and drawn two. The two were against Brentford and Millwall, both in the top half of the table. They are only a point behind the league leaders and have kept clean sheets in both of their last two fixtures. Seven of their 11 league games have had under 2.5 goals scored in them. That looks like going up to eight after this match.

Our Middlesbrough vs Norwich Prediction
Middlesbrough have made a much better start to the season than last term. They would be doing even better if cutting out the draws. If just two of their six draws had been turned into wins, they'd on level points with the league leaders. Scoring is a problem with their joint top league goalscorers only having two apiece. Defensively just five goals have been conceded in 11 games, a new striker in the next transfer window is needed. Norwich made a slow start to the season but have picked up well. They too have had plenty of games with under 2.5 goals scored in them. A bet on under 2.5 goals in the match is the suggested wager.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
