Burnley desperately need points on Tuesday, Apr 20 at 8:45 PM in the Championship. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Middlesbrough come into this fixture drawing too many games (3D in last 5). Burnley travel out of form (0W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Despite playing at home, Middlesbrough face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Burnley have won 4 of 10 encounters, with 5 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw.

Verdict: The gulf in league position makes Middlesbrough clear favorites, but Burnley have shown they can grind out results. Expect Middlesbrough to take the points, potentially without being at their best.
