Middlesbrough v Doncaster Rovers - Team News

NOT surprisingly Tony Mowbray keeps faith with the majority of the players who trounced Cardiff City on Monday. However, the Boro boss looks to have reverted to a more orthodox 4-4-2 formation meaning Scott McDonald returns in attack and Tony McMahon drops to the bench, with Justin Hoyte slotting in at right-back. Mowbray's intention to blood the younger members of his squad continues with Gateshead-born left-back Adam Reach given a spot on the bench. Matt Kilgallon, who spent a short spell on loan at the Riverside last season, is in the heart of Rovers' defence. Middlesbrough: Steele;Hoyte,McManus,R Williams,Taylor;Thomson,Smallwood,Robson,Emnes;Lita,McDonald. Subs: P Smith,Kink,Halliday,L Williams,McMahon,Park,Reach. Doncaster Rovers: Sullivan;O'Connor,Thomas,Kilgallon,Dumbuya;Wilson,Gillett,Moussa,Oster;Euell,Hayter. Subs: Maxted,Martis,Sharp,Hird,Shiels,Lucas,Husband.
