Tip and bets
Middlesbrough were solid in the last round of the FA Cup, but their victory was a sign of Manchester United's crisis rather than the Boro's strength. We will be backing the visitors today, who are a better team and should easily progress to the next round.
Our prediction — Tottenham to win
We do not expect a high-scoring game here. The hosts will probably focus on defense and just one or two goals can decide the outcome of the match. Moreover, no more than two goals were scored in 2 of the last 3 games between the clubs.
Second wager — total under 2.5 goals
