Meanwhile Middlesbrough is currently in fourth place. While they are safe in the playoff spots, they still have a mathematical chance to finish in second place for automatic promotion to the Premier League, though they need other results to go their way.
Kim Hellberg’s squad have found good form recently, winning their last two matches against Cardiff City and Watford.
