West Ham United and Middlesbrough meet at London Stadium, London on Tuesday, Dec 8 at 9:00 PM with both clubs firmly in the mix for the European places in the Championship. Just 2 points separate them in the standings.
West Ham United come into this fixture in good form (3W 2D 0L recently). Middlesbrough travel drawing too many games (3D in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
History strongly favours West Ham United here — they've won 5 of 10 previous meetings against Middlesbrough, with 4 draws. Their last encounter ended in Middlesbrough won 1–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.6 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives West Ham United a slight edge, but Middlesbrough are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
