Team News

Middlesbrough
Stoke
  • Riley McGree could lose his place in the starting XI this weekend despite scoring on Wednesday night with Matt Crooks available for selection after serving his suspension.
  • Chris Wilder has just one confirmed absentee for the visit of Stoke with centre-back Dael Fry set to miss out.
  • Michael O'Neill could make just one change for the trip to Teesside this weekend with central midfielder Sam Clucas in with a chance of a recall.
  • Young centre-back Will Forrester remains a doubt, while O'Neill has a further four injuries to contend with.

Prediction

  • Middlesbrough's front two failed to break their goalscoring drought on Wednesday night, but goals from midfield duo Marcus Tavernier and Riley McGree helped Boro claim a massive 2-0 win against Cardiff. Chris Wilder's side have closed the gap to Sheffield United to just two points with two games remaining.
  • Jacob Brown scored inside the first minute of the second half last weekend as Stoke claimed a 1-0 win against a mid-table QPR side. The Potters are ending the season in strong form and travel to the Riverside having won three of their last four league games.
