Middlesbrough were unable to get past Stoke City last weekend as both sides were made to settle for 0-0 draw at the Bet365 stadium. Failing to pick up a win has seen Tony Pulis’ men drop to 4th in the table.
They must definitely go for the win when they come up against Wigan Athletic in the Championship this weekend.
Ryan Shotton and Sam McQueen are the only absentees for Boro. Apart from that, Pulis will have a fully fit and firing squad to pick from. Changes could be made though.
Made a couple of important saves against the Potters last time out. Should keep his place in goal.
Fry has defended well but the full-back needs to offer more support going forward.
The 28-year-old was defensively solid in the last game. He should lead the line from the back for this one as well.
The centre-back has looked good alongside Batth this season. He has stepped up in the absence of Ben Gibson.
Friend has looked impressive throughout the season and is one of their best performers.
Howson is yet to score a goal this season and this could be the game for him to open his account.
Has been defensively good and his distribution has been fruitful.
Besic seems to have revived his career after making the move. The midfielder should now maintain consistency.
Downing is always a threat with his teasing balls into the box. More of the same will be needed for this game.
No goals for the striker this season and he must get one in to build on his confidence.
He has looked venomous at times this season but needs to find his scoring form once again.
