Team News

Middlesbrough
Coventry
  • Michael Carrick could make a couple of changes for the visit of Coventry on Monday with Matt Clarke and Josh Coburn both returning to the starting XI.
  • Seny Dieng and Hayden Hackney are among those expected to miss out on New Year's Day.
  • Mark Robins will likely reintroduce Jake Bidwell, Milan van Ewijk, Callum O'Hare and Ellis Simms after all four players were rested on Friday night.
  • Liam Kitching serves the second instalment of a three-match ban on Monday.

Prediction

  • Middlesbrough had Jonny Howson to thank on Friday night as his late strike proved enough to earn all three points on the road against a struggling Huddersfield side.
  • Michael Carrick's men ended 2023 with three wins from their last four Championship fixtures ahead of a reunion with their play-off semi-final opponents from last year.
  • Coventry were on course for a deserved 2-1 home win against a managerless Swansea side last time out before a stoppage-time goal from Liam Cullen levelled the scoreline late on.
  • The Sky Blues are unbeaten in six league outings ahead of their trip to the Riverside.
