No injury worries for Boro

Middlesbrough manager Steve McClaren has no fresh injury worries ahead of Sunday’s trip to face Tottenham at White Hart Lane.

McClaren’s players came through last night’s 2-0 UEFA Cup Group E defeat to Villarreal unscathed, albeit with only their pride bruised after suffering what was their first loss in European competition.

McClaren and his squad, though, are to remain in Valencia until tomorrow when they will then fly to London in preparation for the game to avoid unnecessary travelling.

Team (from): Schwarzer, Queudrue, Southgate, Cooper, Boateng, Zenden, Parlour, Downing, Viduka, Hasselbaink, Job, Riggott, Nemeth, Doriva, McMahon, Morrison, Davies, Reiziger, Nash.
