Stats for this game
Matchup Birmingham VS Middlesbrough
Middlesbrough establish a strong edge
The Championship results give Middlesbrough a clear direction against Birmingham. Middlesbrough won 1-0 on 5 October 2022 and 3-1 in Birmingham on 2 January 2023. That direction was reinforced by a 1-0 result on 21 October 2023 and another 1-0 victory in Birmingham on 12 March 2024. Middlesbrough then won 2-1 on 8 November 2025 and 3-1 on 2 March 2026. The margins vary, but each fixed result places Middlesbrough ahead.
A strong edge, not a permanent verdict
The 3-1, 2-1 and 1-0 scorelines all support Middlesbrough’s advantage, yet their differing margins leave room for the matchup to change. Middlesbrough’s edge is strong, but it does not require every future contest to follow the same script. Birmingham’s challenge is to turn a narrow deficit into a result, while Middlesbrough will seek another winning scoreline. The matchup remains interesting because a clear historical edge still has to be renewed each time.
