Middlesbrough
Middlesbrough could change their centre-forward again after Will Lankshear did not play at Wrexham. He had scored six goals across his previous three starts, while Riley McGree also dropped out of the side at Wrexham before appearing for the final half-hour. Hellberg's team suffered their only defeat of this five-match run in that game, losing 2-0.
The defensive positions have also changed regularly. Luke Ayling and Ashley Phillips have both started at right centre-back, while Adilson Malanda and Phillips have shared the role on the left. Rokas Pukštas, Alfie Jones and Sontje Hansen are all doubts, with Jones and Hansen carrying calf and hamstring problems respectively.
