Middlesbrough host Liverpool at the Riverside Stadium this Saturday, 15.00 GMT (4pm Nigerian time).

    Middlesbrough are currently chest deep in relegation zone with 23 points. Gareth Southgate has called on his Middlesbrough players to take their FA Cup form into the battle for Premier League survival as they set their sights on Wembley.
    On Wednesday night, goals from Stewart Downing and Tuncay Sanli secured a 2-0 win over West Ham United to ease the Teessiders into the FA Cup quarter-finals for the fourth successive season and end Hammers boss Gianfranco Zola's dreams of winning the competition at the first attempt as a manager.
    But Boro must now put their last-eight clash with Everton to one side as they prepare for Saturday's vital league meeting with Liverpool looking for a first three-point haul in 15 attempts. They have got the home advantage.  .  .will they be able to put it to good use is the question, especially against a team as strong as Liverpool.

    Liverpool still sit in 2nd position on the table with 55 points, 7 points behind table toppers United. Rafa Benitez and his team are prepared to climb even higher after an impressive display of skill and talent in their UCL game against Real Madrid, which they won 1 - 0.
    However speculations still exist on the future of Benitez, whether he'll be leaving or remaining at the club. Rafa made it clear after the R.Madrid win that he was going nowhere though.  .  .further talks on his contract with American owners George Gillett and Tom Hicks will continue over the next few days, so some concrete news will be out soon.
    But as for tomorrow's game, the Scousers are definitely going all out for a win as this is a good opportunity to get closer to leaders United and keep their league title hopes burning bright.

Boro's home, but Liverpool are the favorites for this one.

[color=#000099][/color][s][/s] quite sad, for there to be a difference between champs, Liverpool needs to draw/loose. Sorry though for a very long time middleborough has been liverpool problem. Liverpool na Middleborough wife

Liverpool does not have the team to win the premier league,truth be told.The club does not have the players.But watch liverpool beat manu at old trafford,only to loose to another lower-end-of-the-table club afterwards.Ridiculously inconsistent team.
