Live on Skysports 2: Sat 17.20: At 4/6 (), Middlesbrough can beat Watford in the Championship but it won’t be plain sailing.
Back-to-back home victories have doubled Watford’s win tally for the season but the struggling Hornets nevertheless remain just one place above the Championship drop zone and they look set to emerge empty-handed from their trip to third-placed Middlesbrough.
Boro are just 4/6 with to pick up their third win in four games and as Tony Mowbray’s men have lost just twice this season – to leaders Southampton and Nottingham Forest, who were playing under a new boss – they’re hard to oppose at the Riverside.
Nevertheless, Sean Dyche’s side have done enough in their last couple to suggest they will find the net on Teesside where Coral offer enticing odds of 13/5 for Middlesbrough to prevail but also concede at least one goal.
Hammered 4-1 at Millwall last time out, Ipswich can get back to winning ways as they entertain rock-bottom Doncaster. The Tractor Boys, who have won four out of their last five at home, will be well rested having been without a midweek match and they look decent value at 3/4 with to inflict a fifth defeat in six on Rovers.
Also set for a home win meanwhile, are Boylesports’ even money favourites Peterborough, who are looking to end an unfortunate three-match losing streak against a Derby team beaten 3-0 at home on Wednesday.
Recommended Bets:
Middlesbrough to win ‘not to nil’ – 13/5 (Coral)
Middlesbrough, Ipswich and Peterborough treble – 9/2 (Ladbrokes)
