The only change is likely to be Joseph Job, in for Doriva, as Boro revert to an orthodox 4-4-2 system. The last two games, away at Bolton and Graz, have seen McClaren fiddling with the system and playing 3-5-1.
Graz will be without Roland Kollmann who was sent off last week in Graz.
Both teams had a free weekend in preparation for tonights game. Boro were not in action because of the FA Cup, while Graz missed out due to a postponement.
Furthermore, both teams have been unable to train properly since the weekend due to the bad weather in Austria and here in the North East.
Possible Boro eleven:
Schwarzer, Reiziger, Queudrue, Southgate, Riggott, Morrison, Parlour, Zenden, Downing, Job, Hasselbaink
