Sports Mole previews the Championship clash between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Middlesbrough at Molineux.

Wolverhampton Wanderers host Middlesbrough on Saturday looking to make it three wins from their last four matches.

Dean Saunders's side are currently languishing in the Championship relegation zone, and only three points will see them move closer to safety.

Wolves will be forced into at least three changes from their 2-1 victory over Bristol City, after Carl Ikeme, David Edwards and Bakary Sako were all ruled out for the rest of the season.

Middlesbrough have seen their quest to finish in the Championship playoffs at the end of the season suffer in recent weeks after they lost their last three league matches.

Tony Mowbray's men have not won since they defeated Cardiff City at the beginning of March, but they will be hopeful of returning to form at Molineux.

On-loan midfielder Josh McEachran could return to the starting lineup after being dropped for the 1-0 defeat to Birmingham City two weeks ago.

Sports Mole says: 1-1
