Middlesbrough vs Leeds Predictions, Betting Tips and Preview

Middlesbrough vs Leeds predictions and betting tips for Friday’s Championship fixture at the Riverside with an anytime goalscorer pick and outright prediction included.

Just three points separate these sides coming into this contest with both teams still within striking distance of the play-offs. The hosts have been inconsistent under Tony Pulis and looked susceptible from set-pieces last weekend against Sunderland. They arrive here off the back of successive home wins and will be confident of getting something from this game at a snowy Riverside. Leeds won their first match of 2018 as they narrowly edged out Brentford and Paul Heckingbottom has told his side to build upon that significant three points.

Middlesbrough vs Leeds Predictions

[inline_advert ad=”1″]

Middlesbrough start at an odds-on price and they have been playing well here recently but I wouldn’t discount a rejuvenated Leeds side. The Whites drew their last away game at Derby and they are three unbeaten in all competitions. Heckingbottom knows this division and he could find a way to stifle the opposition. The first of our Middlesbrough vs Leeds betting tips is Draw which is priced at 13/5 with Bet Victor

 

Goals Tip

[inline_advert ad=”2″]

Leeds kept a clean sheet against Brentford at the weekend and whilst they look a tad more organised under the new manager, Middlesbrough will be confident of finding a way through. The Teesside club have won their last two games 3-1 and 2-1 and haven’t been very Pulis-like in their approach recently. Both Teams to Score? Yes is 11/10 with William Hill and is the second of our Middlesbrough vs Leeds betting tips.

 

Goalscorer Prediction

[inline_advert ad=”3″]

Middlesbrough will be forced to take a slightly different approach since finding out that Rudy Gestede will miss the remainder of the season through injury. Patrick Bamford had teamed up well with the big striker and netted twice against Hull here recently. With Britt Assombalonga strangely quiet, Bamford looks to be the main man. Patrick Bamford in the anytime goalscorer market is priced at 39/19 with 888Sport and is the last of our Middlesbrough vs Leeds betting predictions.

 

Middlesbrough vs Leeds Betting Preview

Middlesbrough start this game at a price of 4/5 which is understandable given their recent home form but they’ve only won two of five here. Leeds are priced at 21/5 to clinch back-to-back victories whilst the draw is available at 13/5.

Despite there being three goals when the two sides met earlier in the season, a repeat is not expected here. Under 2.5 Goals is priced at 4/6 with Over 2.5 Goals available at 6/5.

Britt Assombalonga leads the way in the first goalscorer market with the former Nottingham Forest and Peterborough man priced at 7/2 to net the first goal of the game whilst our tip, Patrick Bamford is next in the betting at 19/4.
