Middlesbrough to Win
Middlesbrough have been unbelievable this season and lately in particular. They have seven wins in the last ten games in the league and three defeats.
While Swansea are a tough rival and they definitely can score goals, we expect the three points to go in favor of the visitors who seem superior all positions right now.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
The second of our football betting tips for this game comes from the fact that we expect both teams to score. This is one of the rare rivalries in the Championship that makes you expect goals. Typically, the games in this league are extremely competitive and close but with the absence of huge scorelines.
Swansea and Middlesbrough always produce and four of the last five games between them ended with both teams scoring goals. We definitely envision the same with their current forms.

Swansea vs Middlesbrough Preview: Team News, Form, and Possible Lineups
You can find all the important facts regarding both teams right here, including what we expect Swansea vs Middlesbrough lineups to be:
Swansea
Swansea's season has not gone according to plan and the team is far closer to getting relegated than to getting promoted. The only reason they are not at huge risk is because there are several teams that are struggling far more than them this season. Their attack is actually better than most but the defense is one of the three worst in the league.
Swansea will have a single injured player for this game – their goalkeeper Steven Benda.
Swansea Predicted Lineup:
Fisher – Cabango, Wood, Latibeaudiere – Sorinola, Fulton, Allen, Manning – Cundle, Cooper – Piroe.
Middlesbrough
Middlesbrough definitely did not look like a contender earlier this season but after that managerial change, they have turned into a machine. They have 12 wins, 0 losses and just three defeats in the last 15 games in the league. Reaching the top will be impossible but Middlesbrough have a serious chance to get into Top 2.
Middlesbrough have more problems with injuries ahead of this game. Defender Matt Clarke will miss this match again, midfielder Paddy McNair, and also David Fisher, who has been out of the team due to injuries since early 2021.
Middlesbrough Predicted Lineup:
Bouzanis – Yiadom, Mbengue, Sarr, McIntyre – Hendrick, Casadei – Meite, Ince, Long – Carroll.
