This weekend’s EFL Championship action kicks off at the Riverside Stadium, where Middlesbrough will take on West Bromwich Albion on Friday evening. Boro lead the league standings after five games, while the Baggies are in fifth place. Let’s get into our match prediction.
After missing out on the Playoffs last season, Middlesbrough have made a storming start to the current campaign, now on 13 points (W4 D1), and one of three teams still unbeaten five games in.
Boro dropped their first points of the season last weekend in a 2-2 draw against Preston, where Sontje Hansen scored in stoppage time to keep the side’s unbeaten record intact.
The hosts have won both league home games this season with 1-0 scorelines, while the only defeat they conceded in their last eight at this venue was against Leeds United last season.
Meanwhile, West Brom saw their unbeaten start to the league season brought to an end last weekend when they suffered a 1-0 loss at home to Derby County.
The Baggies have been better on the road than at home this season, winning both away games so far, which is a notable improvement after failing to win any of their final 15 away games last term.
However, the visitors lost both games against this opponent last season and failed to score in either match.
