Wycombe Wanderers vs Middlesbrough Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Daniel Ngulu | in Championship Predictions
It has so far been a torrid period for Wycombe Wanderers in the Championship but they can hope for a better year in 2021 after wrapping up 2020 on a winning note. They will be hosting Middlesbrough in their first match of the new year. Ahead of the game, Wycombe are bottom of the Championship standings with 15 points from 22 matches while Middlesbrough have 33 points and are ninth in the standings. Two straight home matches before they shift attention to the FA Cup will be welcome for Wycombe, who beat Cardiff City 2-1 in their last game. In the win, they will feel they should have kept a first clean sheet in nine matches after Junior Hoilett scored for Cardiff in the last minute. At the end of it though they celebrated the first win in 12 matches and will now hope to build on it as they focus on better defending too. In the last five matches, Wycombe have no clean sheet but scored in four. They have conceded two or more goals in four of their last seven matches and five of the last seven matches have produced over 2.5 goals while they have scored more than a goal in just three of their last 15 matches. Having been playing in the lower leagues, this is going to be the first ever meeting between these two sides. They lost their first seven matches in the Championship and so far, they have lost 13 of the 22 matches played. Wycome also have the poorest defence in the league, after conceding 32 goals in 22 games. In the last eight home matches, Wycombe have managed two wins, three clean sheets and lost twice.
Middlesbrough head to this game after a disappointing 2-1 loss to a manager-less Sheffield Wednesday. With that loss, promotion hopeful Middlesbrough missed the chance to leap into the top five and will be hoping it gets better against Wycombe. Middlesbrough have three losses and two wins in the last five matches and have conceded two goals or more in two of the five while failing to score in one. Heading to this game, a lot of focus will be on Duncan Watmore, who has been in good form lately, with three goals in the last four matches. Middlesbrough may have lost their last game but will feel confident facing the side with the poorest defence in the league, while the visitors themselves have the third best defence in the Championship. They have conceded 17 goals in the 22 matches played but a lot of improvement is needed away from home, with Middlesbrough having lost four of the last five away matches. In 11 away matches, Middlesbrough have managed two wins and five losses while they have failed to score in five of their last 11 away matches in the Championship this season. Four of their last five away matches in the Championship have produced over 2.5 goals and they have scored two or more goals in two of their last five away matches in the league.

Our Wycombe Wanderers vs Middlesbrough Prediction
Wycombe Wanderers are currently the weakest side in the Championship and also have the poorest defence. They head here buoyed by a win in their last game of 2020 and will hope it can start a fine winning run as they hope to rise from the drop zone. They face a Middlesbrough side that has done fairly well this season even though are coming from a loss. Middlesbrough have not done well away from home and could concede here, but with a better defence, we feel they stand a better chance of bagging three points. In light of this and seeing that these two sides have had high scoring matches, we will go for over 2.5 goals in this game.
