THE PREDICTION

Tony Pulis had his contract as Sheffield Wednesday manager dramatically terminated last night just before this crucial contest against Middlesbrough. Pulis had been been in charge of the Owls for just 45 days and they remain inside the Championship bottom three. First team coach Neil Thompson will take charge for this match as chairman Dejphon Chansiri hopes for a post Pulis bounce. Neil Warnock and the Teesiders however, will provide seriously stiff opposition considering that they have won their last three games. Warnock’s men have also benefitted from an extra rest, with ten days between their fixture and this match. This will prove a tight contest whatever the result and under 2.5 goals scored is expected between two teams who usually prioritise a solid defensive structure. However, the visitors contain that extra class upfront, which should see them edge this one.
