Both Teams To Score

Reason for tip

Both teams to score is the standout bet when Middlesbrough host Hull at the Riverside. Hull have seen goals at both ends in ten of their last 12 Championship away games, while Middlesbrough average two goals per match against top-six opposition. Neither defence has been convincing recently, so chances at both ends look inevitable.

Draw 1-1

Reason for tip

A 1-1 draw looks the most plausible correct-score option. Middlesbrough have drawn seven league games this season, with four finishing 1-1, and Hull’s last two Championship matches have ended level. Six of the last seven meetings between these sides have also seen both teams score, pointing towards another stalemate with goals.

Goals likely at the Riverside as Boro and Hull trade blows

Take both teams to get a goal in Monday’s Championship clash between Middlesbrough and Hull at the Riverside Stadium. Hull played out a 2-2 draw with Sheffield Wednesday in their last league game on Friday and there is no reason to expect them to keep a clean sheet here.

Middlesbrough are second in the Championship, two places above Hull, with five points separating the teams. Both have won more games than they have lost this season, with Middlesbrough boasting 12 wins and Hull 11.

Middlesbrough have recorded five victories in the last seven Championship head-to-heads with Hull, but the visitors are hard to beat, having avoided defeat in five of their last six games.

Hull’s three-game winning run came to an end with a 2-2 draw at Sheffield Wednesday on Friday. Hull were priced as evens favourites to win but were unable to reward their backers, and the match kept up the recent trend of both teams scoring in Championship games.

Middlesbrough will be upbeat about their prospects of finding the net here. They have scored an average of 2.00 goals a game in their five Championship games against other teams in the top six this season, and only four teams have more goals than the 33 they have scored overall.

Both teams have scored in ten of Hull’s last 12 Championship away games and six of the last seven meetings between these sides.

Neither defence has been watertight of late. Middlesbrough have failed to keep a clean sheet in 16 of their last 20 games against Hull, while the visitors have conceded on each of their last five Championship road trips.

It could be hard to separate these two sides, with the 1-1 draw looking a decent correct-score bet. Middlesbrough have drawn seven Championship games this season, four of them ending 1-1, and both teams have scored in four of Hull’s last six matches.
