Middlesbrough will be hoping to return to winning ways in the Championship on Good Friday as the English second tier action returns this weekend, but Boro have failed to win any of their last three league matches.
A disappointing 1-0 defeat at home to Charlton Athletic was followed by back-to-back draws with Bristol City and Blackburn Rovers respectively prior to the international break which has allowed the chasing pack of Ipswich Town and Friday’s visitors Millwall within just two points of Boro.
Indeed, recent results have seen something of a decline in form for the north-east hosts as Middlesbrough have managed to collect just two wins from their last eight matches overall in the Championship while also slipping to two defeats as well as being involved in four stalemates.
Millwall occupy 4th place in the Championship table and as mentioned earlier, The Lions are now within just two points of their upcoming hosts ahead of this upcoming vital encounter at the Riverside Stadium.
However, the London club have also gone off the boil in recent times in the Championship as Alex Neil’s side suffered a 2-1 loss at home to Blackburn Rovers although Millwall did manage to pick up an important point in a 1-1 draw away from home at Ipswich Town just before the international break.
The bigger picture shows Millwall have been dealt just two defeats in their last 11 league matches overall in the domestic second tier while picking up seven wins along with being involved in three draws as well.
An overall away record of 9-6-4 25/21 therefore gives Millwall a decent chance of picking up something at the Riverside Stadium.
The Betting Verdict
Middlesbrough’s results have been in decline for a while and this gives Millwall a decent chance of at least a point here.
The Pick :
Middlesbrough 1-1 Millwall
