Sports Mole takes a look at Huddersfield's trip to Middlesbrough in the Championship on Tuesday.

Middlesbrough will be eager to record a win over Huddersfield Town on Tuesday night at the Riverside Stadium following two consecutive defeats.

Boro's bid for automatic promotion has been dented in recent weeks and they now find themselves in fourth place in the table.

Meanwhile, a win for 10th-placed Huddersfield could lift them up into the playoff places.

The home side will be without the suspended Grant Leadbitter, who picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in Saturday's 3-1 defeat to Bristol City.

James Vaughan, Jermaine Beckford and Sean Scannell are all expected to remain sidelined for the visitors, while Keith Southern is banned.

Recent form:

Middlesbrough: WWDWLL

Huddersfield: LWDWLD

Possible lineups:

Middlesbrough: Steele; Hoyte, Bikey, Hines, Parnaby; Thomson, McEachran, Emnes, Ledesma; Jutkiewicz, Miller

Huddersfield: Smithies; Dixon, P Clarke, Hunt, Lynch; Norwood, Clayton, Ward, Arfield; Novak, Church

Sports Mole says: 2-1
