Leo Percovich will take interim charge of Middlesbrough, after it was announced Chris Wilder was sacked, on Monday morning. Ryan Giles and Isaiah Jones are both set to return, which could see a change in personnel in both wing back positions. Riley McGree could also start for the hosts after he was named on the bench on Saturday. Darragh Lenihan is struggling with an ankle injury and will miss the next couple of games. An unchanged starting XI is expected from John Eustace following the impressive draw away from home against Sheffield United. The Blues will be without five first-team players when they make the trip to the Riverside in midweek.
