Middlesbrough in excellent form and without weakness will face poor Blackpool. The hosts will be looking to close the gap of 13 points to second-placed Sheffield. Guests in terrible form and many sidelined players. The last match lost to Watford 2-0, which today’s hosts beat with the same score 2-0. The coach will have a bigger headache, he can’t count on: Ekpiteta, Dougall, Madine, Thompson, Carey, Thorniely.
