Enhanced treble: Brighton, Middlesbrough and QPR a tasty trio

The Northeast team sit in third, just two points from the summit, and are in a rich vein of form having taken all the spoils in three of their last four.

Boro are firing at both ends. They have third best defence in the division, conceding just 12 goals in their 17 games, while at the other end they are the second-top scorers, with two strikes to their name.

They travel to Huddersfield Town here, a team who have one win in nine and have lost four of their preceding five clashes going into this one; it doesn’t bode well for the Yorkshiremen.

The Terriers are fourth-from-bottom and have just a single success over their opponents here in the last 12 meetings.

QPR v Leeds

QPR are getting to grips with life under Neil Warnock again and their home form of late has been superb.

The west Londoners are undefeated in five contests at Loftus Road. That solidity has come from the back, with three successive clean sheets in front of their own supporters.

They face crisis club Leeds United, who have a mere two wins in their last nine league games.

Their showings on the road of late will do little to worry the capital club either. It’s one success in four for Steve Evans’ men, who have won just once on eight visits to London.
