👉 Our prediction is: Middlesbrough win or draw

Our top tip for this match is to bet Middlesbrough to win or draw on the Double Chance market.

While it is tough to go away from home and pick up a positive result like a win or a draw, we have seen through recent form and season statistics that Middlesbrough has what it takes to accomplish that task. And the fact that Middlesbrough only needs to avoid defeat makes it a more achievable result.

👉 Our prediction is: Both teams to score

The best betting option for Sheffield United vs Middlesbrough 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 Sheffield United and Middlesbrough in this game.

To guarantee a win on Both Teams to Score, as the name suggests, we need both Sheffield United and Middlesbrough to score goals.
