Middlesbrough vs Swansea Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Kennedy Kechula in Championship Predictions
Middlesbrough will be out to avoid another slow start to the season as they welcome Swansea for their opening Championship match. The two teams ended last season 12 points apart and both will be hoping for success in their promotion quests. Read on for our prediction as Boro looks to extend their dominance against the Swans.
Michael Carrick’s first full season at Middlesbrough didn’t go fully as planned. The team finished eighth, four points below the playoff spot. This was a lower finish than in his first seven months in charge, when he guided the team to the promotion playoffs.
After doing doubles over Swansea in the last two seasons, Middlesbrough, playing at home, will be favorites this time too. A poor start last season was to blame for Middlesbrough’s finish. They managed just a win in their first seven games, a run to avoid this time.
Swansea come into this game as underdogs, having struggled in recent matches against Middlesbrough. The best they’ve achieved in the last six meetings with Middlesbrough was a 1-1 draw in 2022. Emmanuel Latte’s brace the last time the Swans visited was enough to hand them a 2-0 defeat.
They also had mixed fortunes in preseason, winning once and losing once in the three friendly matches played. To close last season, Swansea lost 1-0 to Millwall, ending the campaign winless in two matches.
They had, however, won the earlier three matches, keeping clean sheets in all. Luke Williams’ charges will arrive for this game having managed just one away win in the last six league matches. In that run they lost twice, and one of those defeats was inflicted by Middlesbrough.
