'Boro To Survive With Point At Wednesday

Middlesborough go into this game still with the threat of relegation over their heads, they find themselves 2 points clear of Luton , a point should be good enough to keep them in the Championship but 6 other clubs also are not mathematically safe.

Sheffield Wednesday go into the game safe and with nothing to play for after a disapointing campaign with only 2 wins since the re-start and on the back of a 5-3 thumping by promotion chasing Fulham.


They also await the verdict of a misconduct charge which could carry up to a 21 points deduction


'Boro had a mixed return with 5 defeats and 3 wins although goals have been the issue as they find themselves the lowest scorers in the league.


The last time these two meet on the last game of the season the owls won 2-0 in 2013 with goals from Howie and Leroy Lita.


'Boro boss Neil Warnock will try to persuade Adam Clayton to feature despite his contract ending tonight.


Mcnair is an option again whilst Howson is suspended.


Wednesday's Kieron Lee missed the trip to Fulham but Garry Monk hopes he may feature , if he does return it could see Pelupessy drop to the bench and Murphy and Nuhio hope their contributions at Fulham earn them a start, Fletcher and Urhoghide remain out.


With not much for Wednesday to play for I can see the Owls having their wings clipped as 'Boro take the point they need to be safe in 0-0 draw


Score Prediction: Sheffield Wednesday 0-0 Middlesbrough
