Championship Match Preview: Middlesbrough vs West Bromwich Albion
The Riverside Stadium will play host to an exciting Championship clash on September 19, as Middlesbrough take on West Bromwich Albion. Kick-off is set for 8pm, and the game will be broadcasted on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Football.
Middlesbrough, currently leading the Championship with a 13-point return from five games, will be aiming to continue their impressive form. They have scored nine goals this season, with eight different players getting on the scoresheet. Notably, Middlesbrough are unbeaten in their last four matches against West Brom and have lost just one of their last eight Championship home games.
On the other hand, West Brom find themselves in fifth place in the Championship. The Baggies have shown a knack for draws, registering 11 away from home last season, the joint-highest in the division. West Brom's predicted line-up for the match includes Molumby and Price, with the latter, a 21-year-old forward, having a great start to the season. He has scored three goals and provided one assist for West Brom this season, and also netted a goal for Northern Ireland in World Cup qualifying.
Isaac Price, however, has a history of receiving cards, with 11 in 37 Championship appearances last season. His teammate Jayson Molumby also carries a card-related record, having picked up 11 yellows in his last 37 Championship appearances.
Middlesbrough's predicted line-up for the match includes Brittain, Morris, Hackney, Targett, Whittaker, Conway, and Strelec. Middlesbrough have conceded just three goals this season, the second-lowest in the division, which could pose a challenge for West Brom's offensive efforts.
The two teams have had a history of close encounters, with two 1-1 outcomes in the last eight meetings between them, and three of the last 11 matches finishing 1-1. Middlesbrough are the 11-10 favourites to win the match, while West Brom are a 2-1 chance, and the draw is available to back at 2-1.
As both teams gear up for this highly anticipated encounter, fans can expect a tense and closely fought battle at the Riverside Stadium.
