Prediction

  • Blackburn would have been happy to take a point against an in-form Middlesbrough side on Wednesday night, but a late Dom Hyam goal combined with a strong defensive display sent them back to Lancashire with all three.
  • John Eustace's men have now won back-to-back league games.
  • Leeds scored at both ends of the first half on Wednesday night as they cruised to a 3-0 home win against a struggling Luton side.
  • Three straight wins have ensured that Daniel Farke's men remain clear of Sheffield United at the top of the Championship table heading into gameweek 18.
