Middlesbrough plays host to Coventry City this Tuesday for their chance to close the gap in the Championship top two. Heading into the game, Middlesbrough are second on 30 points, seven behind their visitors. Let’s have a look at the prediction here.
Middlesbrough dropped two more points after the international break following a 1-1 draw with Oxford United. They failed to take advantage of Stoke City’s defeat at Leicester City, and now they have a tougher outing.
In their last five matches, Middlesbrough have managed just one win but also lost once in the same period. In the last five meetings with Coventry, Middlesbrough suffered straight defeats.
Coventry haven't lost in their last eight matches against Middlesbrough, and in that process they won six times. They will go into this match keen on building on that record.
The Sky Blues came from two goals down to beat West Bromwich Albion 3-2 at home and will be pumped up for this encounter. They have now scored three times in three of their last five matches.
The last two times they visited Middlesbrough, they also scored three goals, and this presents them a chance to go 10 points clear. Coventry faced another top-two contender in their last away match, Stoke City, and did well to claim a 1-0 win.
Frank Lampard’s side has scored 14 times in the last five away matches.

Our Middlesbrough vs Coventry City Prediction
Both Coventry City and Middlesbrough have let in goals in their recent outings. We don’t expect it to be much different here as the top two sides square off. The recent matches haven't borne the best of results for Middlesbrough, and it will definitely get tougher here.
Coventry showed their fighting spirit in the last game and will come here with some momentum. The visitors have a good run in this particular fixture and scored three times in each of their last two visits here. Our prediction for Middlesbrough v Coventry City is Coventry wins and BTTS.
