Middlesbrough vs Huddersfield Town prediction, preview, team news and more | EFL Championship 2021-22

The English Championship continues next week and will see Middlesbrough host Huddersfield Town at the Riverside on Monday afternoon.

Middlesbrough's struggles continued on Friday as they held on for a goalless draw against Bournemouth. A rather passive performance from Boro saw them struggle offensively, marking yet another goalless outing from Chris Wilder's men.

Middlesbrough sit seventh in the Championship table with 63 points from 41 games. They can return to the playoff spots with a win on Monday and will be looking to do that.

Huddersfield Town were held to a 2-2 draw by Queens Park Rangers in their last game. The Terriers were clear favorites to win the game but were pegged back twice by the resolute Rangers.

The visitors remain third in the league standings with 70 points. They will be aiming to return to winning ways this week to further strengthen their hold on a playoff spot.

Middlesbrough vs Huddersfield Town Prediction

Middlesbrough are winless in their last three games and have failed to score any goals in five of their last seven games across all competitions. They are on a three-game losing streak at Riverside and will be desperate to end that run.

Huddersfield Town are unbeaten in their last three games and are the more confident side ahead of Monday's game. The visitors should win this one.

Prediction: Middlesbrough 0-1 Huddersfield Town
