Boro sit 6th in the Championship table with 37 points, although Watford remain on their tales amassing the same number of points with a game in hand.

Finn Azaz will be a player to watch out for. The Irish attacking midfielder has scored eight goals and assisted nine in 23 appearances for Middlesbrough this season.

Hull City are in better spirits as of late, having managed to win two of their previous three fixtures. A 2-1 win against Swansea saw the Tigers snap a streak of 13 games without a win.

Hull now face a schedule which sees them play four teams inside the top half of the table in their next five fixtures.

Hull will be without Liam Millar, Mohamed Belloumi and Carl Rushworth through injury.

Middlesbrough Preview:

Middlesborough Predicted Line-up: Glover, Neto Borges, Edmundson, Fry, Dijksteel, Hackney, Barlaser, Doak, Azaz, Burgzorg, Latte Lath

Michael Carrick’s side may have continued their run of draws against Burnley but can take positives away from the result having missed ten first-team players.

Middlesbrough are expected to be without Seny Dieng, Luke Ayling, George Edmundson, Aidan Morris and Jonny Howson, Tommy Conway and Sol Brynn through injury.

Rav van den Berg will be available having survived his suspension.
