Team Analysis
Chelsea has displayed remarkable improvement in recent weeks, boasting an enhanced win percentage and heightened attacking prowess. Considering their current domestic standings, the team is determined to exert maximum effort in their pursuit of clinching a Cup.

In contrast, Middlesbrough is grappling with home form issues, evident from their numerous defeats since December, with a majority coming against Championship teams.

Additionally, Chelsea holds a commendable head-to-head record in the history of this matchup.

Anticipating a goal-filled match, especially given the hosts' recent trend of matches concluding with more than 2.5 goals, and the visitors consistently scoring, including three goals in their last away game. It appears that a high-scoring encounter is on the cards this time.

Odds Analysis
Bookmakers position Chelsea as the favorite, and considering the discernible quality difference between the two sides in recent weeks, supporting the Premier League side to win by a margin of two or more goals at odds of 2.49 seems like a sound bet.

For the second tip, the odds of 1.61 for over 2.5 goals hold promise, given both teams' recent goal-scoring involvement in their matches.
