He's a Behavior which will do the trick for you (inspired by this blog post):

public class SelectRowOnRightClickBehavior : Behavior
{
    protected override void OnAttached()
    {
        base.OnAttached();

        AssociatedObject.MouseRightButtonDown += HandleRightButtonClick;
    }

    protected override void OnDetaching()
    {
        base.OnDetaching();

        AssociatedObject.MouseRightButtonDown += HandleRightButtonClick;
    }

    private void HandleRightButtonClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
    {
        var elementsUnderMouse = VisualTreeHelper.FindElementsInHostCoordinates(e.GetPosition(null), AssociatedObject);

        var row = elementsUnderMouse
            .OfType()
            .FirstOrDefault();

        if (row != null)
            AssociatedObject.SelectedItem = row.DataContext;
    }
}

Use it like this:
