Who will win the match between Middlesbrough and Sheffield Wednesday?

Middlesbrough are the favourites, according to CheckLive's analysis, owing to a clear advantage in squad quality and mental fortitude. Their winless run masks underlying numbers that point to a positive result at the Riverside, especially against a Wednesday side that has struggled all season both home and away.

Who has better form coming into this Championship clash?

Middlesbrough hold the better form despite neither side winning in five matches. Their underlying metrics are stronger, particularly at home, where they have picked up 40 of their 72 points. Sheffield Wednesday have the worst away record in the division and have scored only 11 goals on the road.

Will both teams score in this match?

Both teams have scored in only two of the last five meetings, and recent form suggests a low-scoring affair. Middlesbrough have kept clean sheets in two of their last four home games, while Wednesday have failed to score in three of their last five away trips. Under 2.5 goals is the likeliest outcome.
