Middlesbrough betting trends at a glance Above average

Over 244 matches on file, Middlesbrough's most frequent betting market is Over 7.5 Corners in the Match, which has landed 81.1% of the time. To Score (77.9%) and Team Over 3.5 Corners (76.6%) follow, with Over 2.5 Cards in the Match and Over 1.5 Goals in the Match completing the top 5.

The standout against the average Championship side is Team Over 3.5 Corners: 76.6% for Middlesbrough against 68.8% league wide, 8 percentage points higher.

Overall, 1 of 5 of Middlesbrough's top markets land more often than they do for the typical Championship club, by more than chance would explain, so they look like real tendencies for Middlesbrough.

These are past frequencies, not predictions. A market that lands often is usually already priced short by bookmakers, so a high strike rate does not make it a profitable bet. Use the figures to see what is normal for Middlesbrough, then compare them with the odds on offer.

Gambling can be addictive. 18+ only. Responsible gambling.
