Saturday, February 18 at 3pm in Championship

We said: West Bromwich Albion 1-1 Middlesbrough

West Brom have started to stutter in their playoff charge for the first time under Corberan, and the visit of an in-from Middlesbrough is not the easiest game to get back to winning ways in. Boro are closing in on the automatic promotion spots after a sensational run of form, however we feel they might have to settle for just a point at The Hawthorns on Saturday. Read more.
