Championship: Norwich City welcome Middlesbrough in what promises to be an engrossing football game. Tipsway gives you everything you need to know!

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Championship game only four days ago. That game was also an away game, at Blackpool. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Middlesbrough form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Middlesbrough so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 3-1-6 (win-draw-lose). It could be a hat trick of victories away for Middlesbrough, as they have won on their previous two travels.
It's the second away game in a row for Middlesbrough, but there's smiles all around after the 3-0 victory versus Blackpool (placed 21st) last time out. Which player has bagged at least one goal four matches in a row for the away side? The correct answer is Akpom and that is quite the feat!
