Will 'Boro be their usual game raising selves against Liverpool? Their recent record against the dippers suggests they will.

The last 10 games between these two clubs at the Riverside is as follows:

2 Liverpool wins

4 Middlesbrough wins

4 draws


Do we think that trend will continue or will 'Boro roll over for them tomorrow? I'm hoping for at least a draw for 'Boro.

Liverpool have been at their best when coming from behind this season. They've won about six games after going a goal down. They even came from 2 goals down to beat City at Wastelands. I'd love a draw though, I think Rafa would have a nervous breakdown :happy

I would love to see Pool lose points from this game, but I think they will manage to get the 3 points from this one mostly because Boro are desperate this season. Come on Southgate prove me wrong

without torres - i think boro wins

The fans are certainly happy with it, but I actually think that problems like this can only affect the players in a negative way. When they see that their club is being run with all its dirty washing out in public it doesn't exactly instill confidence in them. Though having said that, they might that this is a victory for Rafa in that he's now got his own way. Could go either way to be honest.

shhhh yer been too loud :fyou::rofl:

seriously though wouldn't expect much from boro theve been awful this season tbh

Southgate has a lot to prove to the fans and that win against West Ham,knocking them out the Fa Cup didnt do him any harm,but a result against Liverpoo should keep his job safe for a bit longer,so good luck Garrath,give em a good kickin,there will be no Torres,so unless Gerrald starts,they will be relying on Rat Boy,Benyhun for another lucky cross,to punt in with that over sized nose he has.:rofl: :thumbsup:

yep. leaving us 6 points ahead with a game in hand would be nicely nicely. would like also to see rafa break down on the sideline, do summat mentle, like attackin torres, or streaking that would be funny

Boro's win against West Ham in the FA Cup is a timely boost before their game against Liverpool. They've been dreadful recently in the league but they do seem to raise their game at the Riverside when facing the big 4. Probably because it's the only time they get a decent crowd in the stadium.

 

[Jay007]

Boro always seem to raise their game against the 'Top 4' sides, so hopefully they can do the same tomorrow.

Their 2-0 win over West Ham in the cup will also raise their morale a bit as well imo, seeing as it was their first goal in 9 games or something like that, and then they got a second.

I don't think they're good enough to win, but I think it'll be a draw.

without torres - i think boro wins

They have Gerrard back

 

[TheManc]

Boro will bend over for Liverpool, then I expect them to pick up there form and play well against us.

Just gotta feelin its gonna go that way...

 

[ReDeviLoGie]

Middlesbrough haven’t won in their previous 4 league games (3 of them at home) I think we need some sort of miracle for Liverpool to slip up here though Southgate needs to start winning games at home to save his job so what a good opportunity to start winning.

I predict 2-1 to Middlesbrough and I will say they will score the winner in the 90th minute… just makes the win that little bit sweeter

 

[Keano!]

Was so tempted to put a tenner on a draw today....but went against it. My head says a Scouse win

 

[piazza]

I'm not expecting anything out of Boro in all honesty. Though I'd be ecstatic if they got something, but I think Liverpool will get a close win, I'm sure Kuyt will score.

 

[wadadlired]

I can't see anything but a scouse win.

 

[haggler]

tuncay downing double act bought about a far better performance from the smoggies against the irons . i have high hopes for a scoring draw .
