Recent respective form guides

Middlesbrough's away form is none too clever either, picking up four victories from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the Boro, and 3 goals against.
Tottenham H. find themselves struggling down in 15th position in the league having picked up 13 points from their 14 matches. Middlesbrough sit in a healthy 4th in the league, and have picked up 25 points from their 14 games.
