Our prediction is: Middlesbrough win or draw
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 Sheffield Wednesday to win the Double Chance bet, and we think they are more than up to the task.
Our prediction is: Both teams to score
The best betting option for Middlesbrough vs Sheffield Wednesday is the Both Teams to Score market - BTTS. After all, both teams need to seek victory and shouldn't 'park the bus' waiting for the opponent.
But that's not the only reason we believe in a game with goals for both teams. We also see value odds in the BTTS market when we have two offensive teams, as is the case with Middlesbrough and Sheffield Wednesday in this game.
To guarantee a win on Both Teams to Score, as the name suggests, we need both Middlesbrough and Sheffield Wednesday to score goals.
