Middlesbrough Brighton & Hove Albion betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This is a game that puts forward two teams that militate in different divisions, however, this is not sign that a very unbalanced challenge. On the one hand, Middlesbrough continues in great improvement and in the last games has added several triumphs, since Brighton enjoys several players of great technical and tactical quality.

Preview
Middlesbrough and Brighton & Hove Albion face at Riverside Stadium, in a match for this stage of the FA Cup (4th Round). The head‑to‑head record at this stadium favours the away team, since in the last 4 head‑to‑heads they won 2 and tied 2. Nevertheless, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Championship, played on 07‑05‑2016, they tied (1‑1). C. Stuani (19' ) scored for Middlesbrough and D. Stephens (55' ) for Brighton & Hove Albion. Brighton & Hove Albion registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis Middlesbrough

The home team comes to this stage of the FA Cup (4th Round) after a home win by (2‑0) against Sunderland. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 8 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a away win against Queens Park Rangers by (0‑3). Middlesbrough has won 5, tied 1 and lost 4 of the last 10 home matches. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 15 matches, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Middlesbrough conquered a good result in the last game for the championship when they beat QPR by 0-3. In the last game for the FA Cup, the team surpassed Sunderland without problems. Middlesbrough's moment is indeed very positive and confident. The team shows great quality in counterattacks, aerial game and offensive transition, but continues to fail in a very important point, in the defensive line. In this game coach Tony Pulis should line up an attacking team, being Jordan Assombalonga the great danger of the Middlesbrough team: this player is the best scorer with 12 goals. Apparently there are no weight absences for this game.

Confirmed Lineup: Darren Randolph, Ryan Shotton, George Friend, Daniel Ayala, Ben Gibson, Adam Clayton, Jonathan Howson, Adama Traoré, Martin Braithwaite, Patrick Bamford, Ashley Fletcher.
Coach: K. Hellberg.

Analysis Brighton

The away team comes to this stage of the FA Cup (4th Round) after a home win by (2‑1) against Crystal Palace. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 5 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 6 goals scored and 16 conceded; against 5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 17 goals scored and 22 conceded. In their last match, for the Premier League, they got a home loss against Chelsea by (0‑4). In the last 10 away matches Brighton & Hove Albion has won 2, tied 1 and lost 7. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, and their offense hasn’t been one of their best features, as they haven’t scored any goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Brighton & Hove Albion comes to this game with a 0-4 home defeat against Chelsea, adding to the second consecutive defeat in several competitions. In the previous round, the away team overcame with some difficulty the set of Crystal Palace. The main failures in Brighton are mainly in the defensive sector, with the team failing in the defensive set pieces, aerial game and defensive organization. In this game coach Chris Hughton should line up in 3-4-2-1 with Hemed being the most dangerous player in front of attack. On the other hand, Glenn Murray has taken several rabbits from the top hat and has scored 7 goals. For this game the coach does not have Locadia and Ayunga, both injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Tim Krul, Markus Suttner, Connor Goldson, Uwe Hünemeier, Dale Stephens, Beram Kayal, Anthony Knockaert, Tomer Hemed, Sam Baldock, Damir Zdenko Ferencina.
Coach: L. Rosenior, R. De Zerbi.
