At home Preston are also impressive with 4 wins and the second best goalscoring record. They are on an eight game unbeaten run. However, Middlesbrough are 2nd in the league because they have been taking points from games like this. Boro have an excellent defensive record, conceding just nine goals in eighteen league game but are not prolific in front of goal.
An interesting and difficult match for two teams. Waiting for a draw.
