Recent respective form guides
Middlesbrough's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Boro have scored 6, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.
Everton's away form is none too clever either, with 3 victories and just 1 loss from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the Toffees, and 6 goals against.
Middlesbrough find themselves struggling down in 14th position in the league having picked up 20 points from their 20 matches. Everton find themselves in a respectable 6th position, courtesy of the 33 points they have accumulated from 20 games.
