📝 Middlesbrough have signed veteran Luke Ayling to a new 12-month contract. "I'm absolutely thrilled. Last year wasn't great for me, and I wanted to show the fans that it's too early to write me off at this level. I'm pleased with how I've managed to perform this season," the defender stated.
❌ In the injury list are Alex Bangura, Alfie Jones, Darragh Lenihan, David Strelec, George Edmundson, Kaly Sené, and Seny Dieng. These are setbacks the team has learned to cope with-none of them have been in action for a while.

🎙 Alex Neil after the match against Ipswich: “The fact that we're even discussing the top two shows how well the team has performed. We have seven games left. If someone had said at the start of the season that we'd be just a step away from second place, it would have been a huge achievement."
❌ The squad situation is challenging. Will Smallbone is out for two weeks following the Ipswich match, which is a significant blow to the midfield. Also sidelined are Joe Bryan, Massimo Luongo, Tierno Ballo, Benicio Baker-Boaitey, Daniel Kelly, Derek Mazou-Sacko, and Lukas Bornhoeft Jensen.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
Considering the current season's trends and the teams' form, a low-scoring affair seems likely. Middlesbrough have been involved in low-scoring home games, with the last five matches following this pattern. Therefore, betting on under 2.5 goals appears to be the most logical choice. We foresee a narrow 1-0 victory for the hosts, a scoreline that has been quite common in their head-to-head encounters.
