Sheffield Wednesday vs Middlesbrough: Predictions, tips and odds
THIS promises to be a good game under the lights at Hillsborough as a win for Middlesbrough would see them go top.
Meanwhile the home side will be looking to get level with their Championship rivals.
- Draw: 9/4 -
- Lucas Jaoa to score first: 15/2 -
Neither side are in brilliant form, Boro have won just two in seven, while Wednesday have won three of their last eight.
A draw at 9/4 looks a good bet in this top of the table fight which neither side will want to lose, with both sides having a tendency to draw.
The Owls have taken a point from their three league games, while Boro have drawn three of their last five in all competitions.
Owls forward Lucas Jaoa has already scored five this term and is 15/2 to score first.
The 25-year-old came off the bench to score two against Bristol City last time out and you have to fancy him to continue his run.
