Middlesbrough vs Leeds United Preview
Middlesbrough are sitting just outside the play off places in the Championship and a win would put them into the top 6 at the expense of Bristol City, at least temporarily. Tony Pulis’ impact on the side has been mixed, but they are in a really good position to at least challenge for immediate promotion back to the Premier League.
Adama Traore will certainly miss out after he received a red card against Sunderland last week in the incredible 3-3 draw. Jonny Howson may come into the starting 11 in his place. Ben Gibson had a recent injury but it seems as if he has fully recovered now. Fabio is likely to still miss out due to a thigh injury.
Leeds United are 11th, but they are only 3 points behind Middlesbrough so of course a win would take them level on points with their opponents here. Leeds ended their terrible run of form with a 1-0 win against Brentford on Saturday, with a goal from Liam Cooper.
Paul Heckingbottom has some decisions to make, though there are some players missing. Luke Ayling and Conor Shaughnessy are out, while Tyler Roberts is a doubt. Kalvin Phillips and Ronaldo Viera are competing for a place in midfield.

Middlesbrough vs Leeds United Prediction
Middlesbrough are the big favourites for this match, and they will feel confident of claiming the 3 points. Boro can’t seem to put a great run of form together though, as a win is often followed up by either a draw or a defeat.
After earning his first victory as Leeds manager against Brentford, Paul Heckingbottom will feel like a weight has been lifted off his shoulders. Their season is back on track, and they are back in with an outside chance of claiming a play off place.
The tip is for Boro to claim the win, though it is going to be extremely hard fought. Leeds are good on the counter attack and will cause some problems going forward, so expect them to score at some point.
