Stoke City vs Middlesbrough Preview
Bet365 Stadium will host an intriguing Championship clash between in-form Stoke City and promotion hopefuls Middlesbrough. The Potters head into the contest on the back of three consecutive league victories, having beaten Bolton 2-1 away from home at the weekend. Their home form has also been encouraging, with an average of 1.8 goals scored per game at the Bet365 Stadium. However, Maksym Talovierov is suspended, meaning Bosun Lawal is likely to step up and fill the gap in defence.
Middlesbrough, meanwhile, arrive with confidence after securing a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Wolverhampton, taking advantage of their opponents’ attacking limitations. The visitors have been productive in front of goal this season, averaging 1.8 goals per game across their recent matches. Summer signing Will Lankshear remains a key player to watch, having been in prolific scoring form, and Stoke will need to keep him quiet if they are to extend their winning streak.
With both teams showing strong attacking form, this encounter should deliver chances at either end. Therefore, our main prediction leans toward Both Teams to Score, alongside Over 1.5 goals and Half-Time Draw.
This Championship match will be played on Tuesday, 13 October 2026 at 20:00.
