Middlesbrough is set to face a tough test against Everton after losing to Hull City 1-0 on 2026-05-23.

What happened?

The team's recent form has been inconsistent, with a record of LLDDW in their last five games. They are currently 5th in the league with 80 points from 46 games, having won 22, drawn 14, and lost 10.

Why it matters for Middlesbrough
