Middlesbrough are on course to return to winning ways after taking a 1-0 lead at the halfway stage of their Championship match against Bolton Wanderers this evening.
Lee Tomlin fired a strike wide early on as the hosts made the brighter start to the match.
Bolton had a chance of their own soon after, but Dorian Dervite could not direct his header on target from Barry Bannan's free kick.
Patrick Bamford then blazed over and Tomlin saw a powerful shot blocked as Middlesbrough continued to dominate.
Bamford came close again on the half-hour mark with a close-range strike that was kept out by Ben Amos.
Boro finally took the lead four minutes later when Albert Adomah latched on to Tomlin's through-ball and slotted past the keeper.
Saidy Janko saw an effort saved and Bamford blazed over as Boro took their one-goal lead into the break.
