Second-placed Bournemouth are well on course to secure a return to the Premier League after two years away.

Scott Parker’s side are four points clear of Huddersfield Town in third, while still having two games in hand on the Terriers.

The Cherries have stalled recently; failing to score in their last two outings, including a goalless draw with Sheffield United.

Nevertheless, Bournemouth have been impressive at home, where they are unbeaten in six matches.

The home team has never lost in the 17 previous encounters between the sides in the Football League.

Boro’s play-off hopes have dented following back-to-back defeats, which have left them three points off the top six.

Chris Wilder will look to stop the rot by recording the club’s fourth away win in 34 league games played on Good Friday.
