Prediction: 2-0
QPR
Middlesbrough play host to Queens Park Rangers at their Riverside Stadium on day 37 of the current Championship campaign. The Boro aim to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Swansea City and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against QPR. Both Samuel Iling Junior and Kelechi Iheanacho are in line for recalls to the starting XI, while the likes of Ayling, Bangura, Brynn, Dieng, Doak, Edmundson, Lenihan, and van den Berg remain in the treatment room.
The Hoops, on the other hand, are on a three-game losing run in the English second tier. As Queens Park Rangers are not regarded as good travellers, we predict that Middlesbrough are going to pick up all three points from Tuesday’s clash. In the first half of the season, Middlesbrough recorded a routine 4-1 win over QPR. All Celar, Clarke-Salter, Field, Kolli, and Vale are injured for the away team.
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.
