Middlesbrough Manchester City betting prediction

The home team comes to this stage of the FA Cup (Quarter‑finals) after having played in the previous rounds against: Oxford United, Accrington Stanley and Sheffield Wednesday. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 1 win, 7 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a away loss against Stoke City by (2‑0). Middlesbrough has won 5, tied 3 and lost 2 of the last 10 home matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 21 of the last 52 matches have ended ended with Under 1,5 goals. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Middlesbrough were in the second division of the English championship until last season, and then returned to the main division, but it is showing difficulties, and is currently in the relegation zone. In the FA Cup faced limited opponents, which then brought him some facilities to reach this phase of the competition. But now its opponent is a high level team and the difference in the squads is huge, so even at home, the team may be inferior to Manchester City, making their difficulties clear and making plays without much emphasis, just as in the English championship, where it won only four of its twenty-seven matches.

Confirmed Lineup: Brad Guzan , Fábio, Barragán, Ben Gibson, Bernardo Espinosa, Grant Leadbitter, Marten de Roon, Rudy Gestede, Cristhian Stuani, Adama Traoré.
Coach: A. Clayton, K. Hellberg.
