Birmingham City F.C. vs Middlesbrough F.C. Prediction 12 March 2024

Back in mid-February, Birmingham minimally beat Sunderland 2:1, after which they misfired in confrontations with Ipswich (1:3), Southampton (3:4), Hull (1:1) and Millwall (1:0). At this rate, the Brummies found themselves in a dangerous twenty-first position with 39 points and a goal difference of 42:57.

In a similar period of time, Middlesbrough prevailed over Leicester (2:1), Norwich (3:1) and QPR (2:0), and also turned out to be weaker than Plymouth (0:2) and Stoke City (2:2). The current eleventh place with 50 points and a goal statistic of 52:52 certainly suits Boro, who a year ago were two steps away from promotion.

In the previous four meetings of these teams, Middlesbrough invariably celebrated success, and even now they are performing much better than Birmingham. Thus we predict at least a non-loss for the visiting team.
