On Thursday in the EFL Championship, Blackpool will play host to Middlesbrough at Bloomfield Road. Both teams have enjoyed similar seasons thus far. It should be a closely contested game because both teams will be looking to move up the standings with a victory.
Two points clear of the relegation zone, Blackpool is now ranked 18th in the league. Michael Appleton’s team has recently struggled, losing three of their previous five games overall and in all competitions. With a victory at Middlesbrough on Thursday, they will try to turn things around.
Blackpool vs Middlesbrough Prediction
For the match on Tuesday, Blackpool will be without a number of players Lewis Fiorini, Kevin Stewart, Keshi Anderson, Jordan Thorniley, Jordan Gabriel, Jake Beesley, Stuart Moore, Sonny Carey, Shayne Lavery, Rhys Williams, Liam Bridcutt, Ian Poveda are all out, while Callum Connolly is suspended. Duncan Watmore won’t be available for Middlebrough in the meantime.
Recent performances by the two teams have been very different, and that should be evident throughout Tuesday’s game. Middlesbrough will win by a slim margin in a close encounter, as we forecast.
Prediction: Middlesbrough to win
