    Middlesbrough V Leeds Utd

    Saturday 21st Feb at 12.15pm

    Live streaming links to appear tomorrow AM​


    Boro goalkeeper Dimi Konstantopoulos is suspended after being sent off in the midweek draw with Birmingham so Tomas Mejias is set to continue for Boro.

    Daniel Ayala's thigh injury will keep him out for a third game.

    Liam Cooper is available after a hip problem but will probably only be a substitute as Neal Redfearn sticks with the Leeds side that beat Millwall.

    Tommaso Bianchi (knee) is still out and recent signing Granddi Ngoyi (thigh) is no closer to making his debut.

    Considering Boro play their third match in seven days, I am amazed that bookies are offering 11/2 for a Leeds win tomorrow.

    £40 says a Leeds win.

    If you're feeling brave, Leeds are 11/1 to win on a -1 handicap (ie 2-0 or 3-1)

    M'BORO HOME
    In their last 20 home games, 19 of the 35 goals scored by M'Boro have come from forwards, 12 from midfielders and 4 from defenders.

    In their last 20 home games, 11 of the 15 goals conceded by M'Boro have come from forwards, 3 from midfielders and 1 from defenders.

    In their last 20 home games, 69% of the 36 goals scored by M'Boro have come in open play, whilst 31% have come from set-pieces.

    LEEDS AWAY
    In their last 20 away games, 11 of the 21 goals scored by Leeds have come from forwards, 4 from midfielders and 4 from defenders.

    In their last 20 away games, 23 of the 35 goals conceded by Leeds have come from forwards, 6 from midfielders and 5 from defenders.

    In their last 20 away games, 71% of the 21 goals scored by Leeds have come in open play, whilst 19% have come from set-pieces

    6/1 to win.
    I have re-invested some of my winnings from last week.
    £110.12 on the lads to bring home the bacon.
    Still leaves £600

    Nope.
    It's win or bust.
    If I was covering I would be putting £350 on smoggies to win.
    But we will do them 0-1 or 1-2.

    I always cover the 0-0 and the 2-2

    0-0 10/1

    2-2 20/1

    £17 would cover them

    But it won't be a draw. So it's £17 down the drain. Confident that we will win.

    Evening all. Should be a good game. Can see this being a draw, but I wouldn't be too surprised to see Leeds get home 1-0. Hope Redders sticks with 451/4231

    I would gladly take a draw from this one, that is me now, not tomorrow when we are winning 1-0 with 5 minutes remaining.

    **** mine you've all been on the marching power!! <laugh>

    Top of the table Boro in their backyard and you're all talking like you're top!! <doh>

    I don't buy the 3 games in 7 days argument, when you're winning confidence and adrenaline get you through and I expect nothing other than a Boro win. <ok>

    Steve Morison is due to have a Road to Damascus moment in front of goal shortly, I thought it was last week but the Wallies got off light, so it should be tomorrow. He was deadly once and will be again, so im going for a healthy Leeds win with Moro getting 2/3. Remember, you heard it here first! <doh>

    Davy,

    Are you talking about the two people who missed the lad on ground, like Morisons shooting, the third person Sam Aritan, who stopped and helped him to find his feet or, the lad who was on ground dazed, confused and completely disorientated?.........:emoticon-0148-yes:
