MIDDLESBROUGH VS MILLWALL
Despite losing Rob Edwards in the first half of the season, Middlesbrough have had an excellent campaign. Kim Hellberg joined the club to replace Rob Edwards as head coach, and he’s done an excellent job. The Boro are currently second, nine points behind league leaders Coventry. Despite Boro sitting in the automatic promotion places, they’re without a win in their last three, so they’ll aim to regain momentum.
Millwall are also enjoying a positive campaign; the Lions are currently fourth in the table, just two points away from an automatic promotion place. Alex Neil’s team are without a win in their last two, but they won three in a row prior to this.
Betting Tip: Draw – 14/5 -
