Sports Mole previews Middlesbrough's match with Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Riverside Stadium.

Middlesbrough will be looking to find some consistency after a run of three wins and three defeats.

Middlesbrough manager Tony Mowbray saw his side return to winning ways with a 3-2 victory over Peterborough last weekend and he could retain the same starting lineup.

Several players, including Jonathan Woodgate, were absent from Middlesbrough's 1-0 defeat to Swansea City in the Capital One Cup, but it is expected that they will return for the clash with Wolves.

Wolves secured their second successive win last weekend as they earned a 1-0 win over Birmingham City.

Manager Stale Solbakken has been hindered by injury problems at Molineux in recent weeks so it is expected that he will refrain from making any changes to his team for their match in the North-East.

Recent form

Middlesbrough: WLLWLW

Wolverhampton Wanderers: DLLLWW

Possible starting lineups:

Middlesbrough: Steele; Bikey, Parnaby, Woodgate, Leadbitter; McEachran, Halliday, Haroun, Emnes; Ledesma, McDonald

Wolverhampton Wanderers: Ikeme; Ward, Johnson, Berra, Foley; Henry, Sako, Doumbia, Sigurdarson; Ebanks-Blake, Doyle

Sports Mole says: 2-0
