Burnley to Win
Middlesbrough have been making excellent strides under Michael Carrick, though they have been reliant on last-minute goals to secure results, which was again the case against Luton last weekend. That tactic doesn’t seem sustainable and The Boro could finally come unstuck against league-leaders Burnley on Saturday. The Clarets looked like potential title winners when they beat QPR 3-0 last time out and they can be backed with confidence again here.
Both Teams to Score
Middlesbrough have scored in 100% of their six matches under Michael Carrick’s instruction and with their confidence in the final third on the up, The Boro could maintain their excellent strike rate at Turf Moor on Saturday. Burnley have only failed to score once in 22 Championship fixtures this term however, so expect goals at both ends in Lancashire.
Nathan Tella to Score Anytime
Promising winger Nathan Tella was among the goalscorers for Burnley in their 3-0 win at Luton last weekend and the 23-year-old – who is on loan from Southampton – could be one to watch in the markets again on Saturday. Tella has scored seven times overall in the Championship this term and he has the skills to test the Middlesbrough defence at Turf Moor.
Burnley vs Middlesbrough News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for Saturday’s Championship tussle between Burnley and Middlesbrough below.
Burnley
Burnley have a fully fit squad available at present, giving Head Coach Vincent Kompany plenty of options to consider. The Clarets hold a three-point lead at the summit of the Championship and they are currently the division’s leading scorers with 43 goals.
Middlesbrough
Like their hosts, Middlesbrough have the luxury of a clean bill of health this week and Michael Carrick can field a full-strength XI at Turf Moor. Carrick likes to set his team up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, which should match up well against Burnley’s shape on Saturday.
