Middlesbrough vs Coventry City: Prediction, Head-to-Head, Odds & Stats (Tue, 25 Nov '25)

On this upcoming Tuesday, November 25th, the Riverside Stadium in England will transform into a battle arena for the football face-off between Middlesbrough and Coventry City. Set your alarms, folks, you're not going to want to miss this clash!

When gazing into the crystal ball of past performances, we see that Coventry City rules the roost with three wins, while Middlesbrough appears to be allergic to victory with zero wins in their last three encounters, and draws are as elusive as a unicorn with none to speak of. Their most recent tango was on May 3rd, where Coventry played the charming hosts and treated Middlesbrough to a 2-0 defeat.

Both teams are arriving with some wind in their sails; Middlesbrough is riding high after a commendable 2-1 victory over Birmingham City, while Coventry City squeaked out a 1-0 win against Stoke City. This dynamic duo currently lords over their domestic leagues with Coventry City sitting pretty in first place and Middlesbrough snapping at their heels in second.

Watch out for Middlesbrough's goal-scoring maestro, H. Hackney, who has booted in three goals this season. Meanwhile, on Coventry City's side, M. v. Ewijk has been showing off his generosity with five assists, and it's as if he hands out assists as if they were hotcakes. The players' ratings add further intrigue: Luke Ayling, Dael Fry, and Aidan Morris are Middlesbrough’s top performers, albeit Coventry’s Jack Rudoni, Matt Grimes, and Bobby Thomas strut with slightly shinier ratings.

In the possession department, Coventry City edges it out at 53.07% versus Middlesbrough's stubborn hold at 52.47%. As for corners, expect Middlesbrough to serve around 5.13, while Coventry might fry up a feast of 5.67 corners on average.

Discipline stats throw a couple of yellow flags on the field, with Middlesbrough brandishing 29 yellow cards to Coventry City's 32. Each has power-played the solitary red card—because, let’s face it, what’s a football season without a little drama? So far, they’re both rather polite with penalties, waiving the red flag at naught penalty goals conceded.

After rummaging through the stats, it looks like Coventry might just dance away with the win. But remember, the football gods sometimes have their own sense of humor.
