The Boro midfield did exceptionally well against Liverpool, especially as the Reds had the extra man across the middle of the park, and Gareth Southgate is expected to have no hesitation in naming the same line-up.
It will be a big night for skipper Emanuel Pogatetz. The Austrian international will be making his 300th career appearance.
Pogatetz produced two terrific individual performances in the wins last week.
He has been a regular for Boro at both centre-back and left-back this season, missing just one game through injury and another three as a result of his red card in the Carling Cup.
