The EFL Championship round 1 is good to go!
Today the Championship campaign officially begins. One of the interesting duels you need to check out is the clash between Middlesbrough and West Bromwich Albion. These teams showed some impressive preseason warm-up performances. So tonight is expected of them to present an interesting football match.
Middlesbrough FC ended up the previous season as a 7th-standing team in the EFL Championship. Their score was 20 wins, 10 draws, and 16 defeats. The Boro are definitely looking forward to doing better this season. They played 5 friendly games this summer and won 4 of them. Namely, the squad from Middlesbrough beat Bishop Auckland (0:5), York (2:3), Morecambe (0:3), and Marseille (2:0) and lost against Braga (3:0). So tonight they will definitely bring a quality tactical approach and go for the first victory in front of their loyal fans.
West Bromwich Albion FC, on the other hand, was the 10th-standing team at the end of the campaign. Their score was 18 victories, 13 draws, and 15 losses. WBA dropped down from the Premier League in 2021 to the second-best league in England. This definitely means that they will do their best this season to return to the Premier League. WBA played 6 warm-up duels this summer and managed to win 4 of them, followed by 1 draw game and 1 defeat. Namely, the Baggies beat Leyton Orient (1:2), Northampton (0:3), Oxford Utd (0:3), and Hertha (2:1). So tonight WBA must present good football capacity and try to win their first points.
We are expecting another exciting football match with many goal-scoring chances. The favorite for the victory will be Middlesbrough FC because of their home pitch advantage.
