Going on the Double Chance market is a great way to get a much better shot at winning a bet. And our betting tip of taking Middlesbrough or draw in the Double Chance market is about as close to a safe bet as there is.

Based on their impressive home form this season, it's hard to see Middlesbrough not picking up at least a point in their own stadium. They only need to avoid defeat to Leicester to win the Double Chance bet, and we think they are more than up to the task.
