Middlesbrough vs Coventry – Prediction, and Match Preview
Middlesbrough vs Coventry – Middlesbrough enters this game off of a scoreless draw with Coventry City in the Championship Playoffs.
Middlesbrough had 60% of the possession in that game and two of their five shots on goal were successful. Coventry City’s 11 shots on goal at the other end were all off-target.
Middlesbrough hasn’t typically been able to hold out for a full 90 minutes in recent years. The truth is that Middlesbrough have conceded six goals while failing to stop their opponents from scoring in five of their last six games.
The Coventry City defense has put in a string of strong performances, and as a result, their overall ‘goals against’ total has dropped to three from their last six games.
Their own forwards have managed to score nine goals over that time. Just have to wait and see if that pattern continues into this upcoming game.
