Can’t see it anywhere else and it’s two days away so:

Predictions? Team?

I’m guessing Kane won’t be fit, and O’Hare won’t be match fit so going with:

Moore
Hyam Fadz JCS
Eccles Hamer Sheaf Bidwell
Allen Waghorn
Györkeres

S: Wilson, Rose, Maatsen, Dacosta, Shipley, O’Hare, Tavares

1-1

Moore; Eccles, Hyam, McFadz, JCS, Bidwell; Hamer, Sheaf; Allen, Waghorn; Gyokores.

Hoping Eccles or Kane are fit as 90 mins of Da Costa scares me....

Heart says 1-1, head says 2-0 loss.

Draw would be a very good result here. Not sure we've ever won at the Riverside.

Kane for Eccles & O'Hare for Shipley if those two are fit.

If not, Waghorn for Shipley.

Hopefully Jodi Jones back on the bench.

Going to this...rip anyones hand off for a draw...Must not lose game!

Draw this one then beat Barsnley at home. Then game is on.

Hopefully Kane is back and Maatsen.

Stick with the Box formation...but Ohare in for Shipley.

1-1 draw.

Sounds like the same again. I wonder if O'hare will start instead of Shipley now though, sounds like he was being rested after being battered left right and centre. Mind you Boro are a big team so they'll have O hare physically in their pocket.

Away at Boro, a point would be a great result which I would be very happy with but I'm going to stick my neck out.

1 - 2 away win with Gyokeres getting a goal.

If that happens we would be in a brilliant position

They don't tend to score many and scrape results (bit like us) 1-0 either way. I'll be doing my bit in the stands to try and make it 0-1

Robins has said he needs a rest and would leave him out "if he could" as he's had lumps kicked out of him by the opposition all season. Think it will half hour at the end again.

He'll play on Saturday especially where the opposition might have more of the ball I think.

We need someone in there for Shipley, someone we can trust to play the ball into with their back to goal.

Would be great to get something from this match considering it is against another playoff contender. Was impressed with the win versus Stoke particularly after the team selection. Thought Shipley, Eccles and Bidwell did a decent job and was thrilled for Gyo especially after the miss in the first half which he should have put away.

Tough one against one of the best and most successful managers in this division. Our injuries may work against us in this game. That said, our away form has been good of late and should have won at Huddersfield and Blackburn. Don't usually do well at the Riverside or have I got that wrong. Sky Blue Army will be smaller than usual due to the distance.

We've never won there. Last win away at Middlesbrough was 1993 at Ayresome Park

BTW, bit of trivia. Coventry's goal at Middlesbrough in 1995 was historically significant, why?

Doesn't scare me as much as the guy I saw at Blackburn who had his name/number on the back of this season's away shirt. Truly terrifying

Actually, it isn't. I thought it was but Isais scored away at Chelsea 2 weeks beforehand.

Anyway back to the historically significant fact I promised; Isais was the first opposition player to score at the Riverside, so there is that!

1-1 draw with Gyok scoring again.

Same team as Tuesday except for Kane back in for Eccles if fit.

Exactly! It should bring an end to the cursed reign of Robbings too.
