Middlesbrough are anxiously awaiting the results of tests on full-back Stuart Parnaby's knee injury.
The England Under-21 international suffered the injury during a 2-1 reserve team defeat by Newcastle United and the club's medical staff fear that it might be a recurrence of an old ligament problem.
A Boro spokesman told the Northern Echo: "It's Stuart's right knee, the same one he injured last time.
"He's had a scan, but we won't get the results sorted out until Wednesday.
"It's too early to say what the extent of the injury might be. We have to wait for the results."
Parnaby was forced to sit out four months of the season after injuring the knee during the 3-2 home defeat by Leeds United in August.
