Football – England – Championship Betting Tips
There’s further action in the Championship on Wednesday night as high-flying Middlesbrough take on mid-table Bolton Wanderers with more betting tips at the Riverside Stadium.
Following two away matches on the trot, Middlesbrough have earned just one point from the possible six on offer due to a 0-0 draw away at current Championshjp league leaders, Leeds United which was a solid result for Tony Pulis’s men.
However, a 1-0 loss away at Norwich City on Saturday afternoon means that Boro now need a win at the Riverside to keep in touch with the early leaders. A victory may well be on the cards for Middlesbrough too as they possess a 100% record on home turf having despatched Sheffield United, Birmingham City and West Brom all with clean sheets.
Forwards Braithwaite (3 goals) and Assombalonga (2 goals) are the main goal threats for the home side.
Bolton Wanderers make their way up to the north east having failed to win any of their last three matches in the Championship following defeats to Sheffield United and QPR which were both at their Macron Stadium.
A recent 2-2 draw away at Preston North End was a solid point for The Trotters, but it does mean that the visitors have earned just one point from the last possible nine on offer, and they come up against the best defensive unit at home in the second tier in the shape of Middlesbrough.
Phil Parkinson’s side still remain unbeaten at home however, and they’ll head to the Riverside Stadium in reasonably confident mood.
However, previous history between these two sides at the Riverside is well and truly in Middlesbrough’s favour as Boro have won all of their last five meetings on home turf against Bolton Wanderers.
My betting tips therefore lean towards a Boro win and to cover the asian line too.
