The following season Boro returned from Liverpool with a 2-0 victory. Since then Boro have managed just 5 draws from 19 visits, a record that could change tomorrow night, even with extra time and/or penalties.
Boro take a nine game unbeaten run to Anfield to play a Liverpool side that are not firing on all cylinders. Surprisingly the Merseysider's trail two points behind Boro in the Premiership with a game in hand.
Liverpool knocked Boro out of the League Cup back in 1981, however we exacted revenge with two victories in the 90's, reaching the final on both occasions in 1997 and 1998.
