Middlesbrough, Recent FormMiddlesbrough will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-1 away win against Leicester City. Their share of possession in that meeting was 29%, while racking up 5 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Leicester City, who had 24 shots on goal with 2 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Michael Carrick will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 9 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 8 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
It's been a disappointing spell of home league form lately, having managed to rack up just 1 victory and 3 defeats in their last 6 matches.
Emmanuel Latte Lath will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Middlesbrough.
Plymouth Argyle, Recent FormPlymouth Argyle manager Ian Foster will need to rebuild confidence in his squad after their heavy 3-0 home defeat by West Bromwich Albion. They achieved 44% possession in that match and had 4 strikes at goal, with 0 hitting the target, up against West Bromwich Albion's tally of 17 efforts at goal, 7 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 7, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 11 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of. Winning away from home has been a bit of a problem for them this season having only managed to win 1 of their 16 league games on the road.
Morgan Whittaker is the man of the moment at Plymouth Argyle right now and the toast of their travelling support, having notched up 4 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league.
In the most recent meeting between these teams, they both managed to find the net, but the game finished in a 3-3 draw.
Playing at home, Middlesboro have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 league games against Plymouth. Playing away from home, Plymouth have scored in 2 of their last 3 league games against Middlesboro.
With both Darragh Lenihan (Achilles tendon) and Tommy Smith (Achilles tendon) being out for the rest of the season and Alex Bangura (Leg), Isaiah Jones (Hamstring) and Emmanuel Latte Lath (Hamstring) all unavailable in the shorter term, Middlesboro manager Michael Carrick will be hoping none of his other players pick up a knock going into this clash.
With only Michael Cooper (Knee) and Adam Forshaw (Hamstring) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Ian Foster will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
