Boro in mood to test City

Date published: 23 January 2015


MIDDLESBROUGH won’t fail through lack of belief when they take on Manchester City in tomorrow’s FA Cup fourth-round tie at the Etihad Stadium.

Boro’s Spanish boss Aitor Karanka is convinced his team will be inspired. “I know it is going to be a difficult game,: he said, “but we are preparing to fight face to face with them.”

City, still smarting from a 2-0 defeat by Arsenal last weekend, may have Willy Caballero in goal as they seek to give Joe Hart a rest.
