  • No changes are expected from Michael Carrick following a dominant win against Oxford United on Saturday.

Prediction

  • Middlesbrough produced one of their most dominant victories of the season at the Kassam Stadium on Saturday as an Emmanuel Latte Lath hat-trick inspired a 6-2 comeback win against Oxford United. Michael Carrick's side are on a charge right now and head into this match on a three-game winning streak.
  • Blackburn's game against Portsmouth on Saturday was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch, so Rovers travel to Teesside well-rested after over two weeks out of action. John Eustace's side have won just one of their seven away league match so far this season, although victory did come in their most recent outing against Cardiff.
