Info

Everton is one of the form teams in English football - David Moyes’ team lost just one of the last sixteen games in all competitions. They have won six of their last eight home games, the other two being draws against Chelsea and Arsenal. After eliminating Liverpool and Aston Villa, the Toffees should have no problems with struggling Boro.

Midfielder Marouane Fellaini (back) and striker Louis Saha (hamstring) are expected to be passed fit for Everton. But Jo is cup-tied and Tonny Hibbert (thigh) has joined Mikel Arteta, Victor Anichebe, James Vaughan, Nuno Valente and Yakubu on the sidelines.

Boro's away record is poor with just three wins in 17 matches in all competitions. They were trashed by Tottenham in midweek and they are back in the relegation zone. So Boro have to focus on ensuring survival rather than trying to get something out of this match.

Middlesbrough midfielder Mohamed Shawky faces a late fitness test. Striker Marlon King will miss the game as he is cup-tied.

Middlesbrough has found the going tough against Everton in recent years with just one win in the last eight games while there has been one triumph in the last 10 visits to Goodison Park.
