Prediction

  • Middlesbrough's automatic promotion hopes were dealt a devastating blow last weekend as a second-half capitulation saw the Teessiders hammered 4-2 by 22nd-placed Huddersfield. Michael Carrick's men won't panic on Friday, but defeat here could see them drop behind Luton and out of contention in the battle for second place.
  • Burnley can edge ever close to mathematically ensuring their promotion this weekend. The visitors are currently 17 points clear of their hosts in third place and can seal their fate if they win at the Riverside and Luton fail to win.
