Our prediction for this Championship match:
St. Andrew’s Stadium will host Tuesday’s football game between Coventry City and Middlesbrough. The Sky Blues are fighting hard to survive in the Championship, and they will have to be at their sharpest in the remainder of the season if they are to avoid relegation to the League One. Norway international is banned following his sending off in the 11 draw with Blackburn, while Godden and Jones are sidelined with injuries.
The Boro, on the other hand, came from behind to share the spoils with high-flying Cardiff City in their last league match. Middlesbrough aim to move closer to the playoffs berth, but beating Coventry on the road is easier said than done. A close match is on the horizon, and we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Marcus Browne, Ashley Fletcher, and Yannick Bolasie are all out of contention through injuries.

Highlighted Team (Middlesbrough):
Middlesbrough is a professional football club that have been balancing between the top two divisions of England’s league system in the modern history. Boro have been playing their home games at the Riverside Stadium since 1995 and their shirt colour is red. The capacity of the Riverside Stadium is 34,742. Middlesbrough impressed in the 2015/2016 Championship campaign and they did really well to secure promotion to the English top flight. Newcastle United and Sunderland are regarded as the club’s main rivals, but there is a rivalry with Leeds United as well.
Middlesbrough made it to the FA Cup final in 1997, but Chelsea proved to be a big catch for the Boro in the title game (0-2). However, the Riverside Stadium outfit did remarkably well to win the League Cup trophy in 2004, with the team beating Bolton Wanderers in the final. George Boateng, Stewart Downing, Juninho Paulista, Gareth Southgate, Jonathan Woodgate, Yakubu Aiyegbeni, Tuncay Sanli and Hamilton Ricard are the star footballers who left their mark at Middlesbrough.
