Middlesbrough crestMiddlesbrough, Recent Form

Home
most recent

The Middlesbrough squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 3-1 away defeat against Burnley, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 40%, while racking up 4 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Burnley, who had 11 shots on goal with 4 on target.  

Their boss Michael Carrick has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 12 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 7 goals conceded across those matches.  Unable to deliver a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, it's fair to say they have their troubles at the back.  

They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.  Their home form in the early part of the season has produced an unusually high number of draws, with 5 draws in 11 home league games.  

With 5 league goals in 6 games at home in Riverside Stadium, Chuba Akpom will be feeling confident about hitting the net again in this home encounter.

Wigan Athletic crestWigan Athletic, Recent Form

Away
most recent

Losing 2-1 home to Sheffield United won't leave the Wigan Athletic squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league.  They came away from that fixture with a 65% share of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Sheffield United, who managed 10 attempts on goal, 6 of which were on target.  

Kolo Touré will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 6 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 9 goals and, as a result, lost some important points.  They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 10 games.  Based on their impressive scoring record, which includes goals in 10 of their away matches this season, their travelling support will feel confident of getting a good result on the road.  

Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 6 games.  

With 3 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Wigan Athletic, Will Keane will be looking to add more goals against Middlesbrough in this match.  

Middlesbrough vs. Wigan Athletic Head to head

After a good 1-4 win for Middlesbrough in this pair's last league encounter, Wigan Athletic will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.  

Middlesboro will be looking to extend their current run of 6 clean sheets against The Latics at Riverside Stadium.  The stats show that in the last 3 meetings between The Latics and their rivals, Middlesboro, the former have conceded at least one goal.  

Playing at home, Middlesboro have won the last 3 and are unbeaten in the last 7 times they have faced Wigan in the league.
