Middlesbrough's 2025/2026 Campaign: Solid but Streaky
Middlesbrough’s 2025/2026 Championship journey has been marked by a mix of consistency and occasional hiccups. They secured 22 wins across the campaign, evenly split between home (12) and away (10), showing they can perform on any turf. However, with 14 draws and 11 losses, it’s clear they dropped points more often by sharing the spoils rather than suffering defeat.
The defence has been fairly reliable, conceding 49 goals in total and keeping 14 clean sheets, predominantly at home. Offensively, they have been more prolific away from home, netting 39 goals compared to 34 on their own patch. While their biggest winning streak isn’t recorded, the balance of results suggests a team capable of strong runs but also prone to intermittent setbacks. Middlesbrough’s 5th-place finish with 80 points reflects a campaign of hard work, peppered with moments where they perhaps could have pushed harder for automatic promotion.

Middlesbrough's Home and Away Split in the 2025/2026 Championship
Middlesbrough have enjoyed a strong home presence this campaign, winning 12 of their 24 matches at the Riverside and keeping a tidy 10 clean sheets. Their defence at home concedes less than a goal per game, with just 18 goals allowed, highlighting a solid backline when playing in front of their own fans.
Away from home, the story is a bit different. While they have actually scored more goals on the road (39 compared to 34 at home), their defence has been leakier, conceding 31 goals and managing only 4 clean sheets. This contrast suggests Middlesbrough are a more attacking and less cautious side away, which might explain their slightly lower win rate and the higher number of goals conceded.
Overall, their balanced approach has served them well, placing them comfortably in the top five of the Championship as the 2025/2026 season winds down.
Middlesbrough's Fipster Prediction Record
Fipster has been keeping a keen eye on Middlesbrough in the 2025/2026 Championship campaign, building a modest but promising record. Out of four fixtures graded, the model has netted one star prediction, two ticks, and just one miss. Not quite perfect, but enough to suggest the algorithm is getting a decent read on the Boro's form.
With 22 wins and 16 draws from 46 matches, the team has shown plenty of resilience, which Fipster seems to have captured reasonably well. It’s early days yet, but the data hints that Middlesbrough might be a side worth backing – at least, according to the model's own homework.
