Middlesbrough, Recent FormMiddlesbrough head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 3-1 away win against Birmingham City in their last league encounter. During that encounter they had 61% possession and had 18 attempts on goal with 8 on target, while their opponents hit 1 of their 9 shots on goal.
Manager Michael Carrick will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 14 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 8 goals conceded in the same period. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 10 games. Having shipped at least a single goal in 21 of their 26 league matches this season, they don't have an enviable defensive record this campaign.
This has been a great run of form for them over the past 6 matches, during which they've managed to secure 5 victories.
On an individual basis, Chuba Akpom will be looking to get on the scoresheet again at Riverside Stadium having scored 6 goals in Middlesbrough's last 6 home games in the league.
Millwall, Recent FormIn their last match Millwall enforced their superiority over Rotherham United with a 3-0 home win. They came away from that fixture with a 62% share of the possession and clocked up 26 attempts on goal with 12 on target, in comparison to Rotherham United, who managed 5 attempts on goal, 1 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 6 and seen valuable points lost. They are proving tough to beat with their recent run of 3 clean sheets. After failing to get on the scoresheet in 6 away games out of 12 this season, Gary Rowett will be looking for a bit more consistency from his forwards.
Unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches can be counted as a good run of form, particularly with 3 victories included.
Zian Flemming will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 5 goals in the last 6 league games for Millwall.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was Middlesbrough who ended up empty-handed, losing 2-0 to Millwall.
The Lions defence has struggled at Riverside Stadium, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 9 visits. On each of the last 2 outings between Middlesboro and The Lions in the league, Middlesboro have not performed well in front of goal and have come up empty-handed in terms of goals.
In the league, Middlesboro has had a good run at home against Millwall, being unbeaten in their last 6 meetings at Riverside Stadium.
There is only really one injury concern for the Middlesboro manager Michael Carrick ahead of this clash, with Matt Clarke (Back) missing out, which gives Carrick a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Millwall manager Gary Rowett ahead of this clash, with Ryan Leonard (Hamstring) missing out, which gives Rowett a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
