Two sides coming off important wins, Fulham and Middlesbrough will be switching focus to the FA Cup this weekend. They meet in the third round, with Middlesbrough making the trip to London and below is our match prediction.

Hosts Fulham will be looking to build on their impressive 2-1 win over Chelsea at home. Playing a second straight home game, they will see this as a means towards bettering their quarter-final finish last season.

Ahead of this game, Fulham are unbeaten in their last three home games and have won six of the last 10. The last time these teams faced off was in 2022, with Fulham running out 1-0 winners, stretching their unbeaten run in this fixture to seven games.

Middlesbrough are also coming off a win, theirs more emphatic than Fulham’s as they trounced Southampton 4-0. That solidified their place in the Championship’s top two, ending a run of four winless outings, which had three defeats in them.

The second-tier side will want to keep up the scoring form seen in the last game, as they had failed to score in the earlier four. Away days have surely been tough for Boro, and they are coming off two straight defeats on the road.

The Championship side has won just three of the last 10 away matches.

Our Fulham vs Middlesbrough Prediction

Wins from their most recent matches will pump up these teams as they go to battle for a fourth-round spot. Middlesbrough will, however, feel as slight underdogs here, given their recent form. They did thump Southampton last time out, but that was the first time they scored in five matches.

Three defeats in the last five outings could have an impact on their confidence too. They are facing a Fulham side unbeaten in five matches, with three wins. Our prediction for Fulham v Middlesbrough is that Fulham wins.
