Prediction: 1-0
Middlesbrough
Tottenham will be looking to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Liverpool when they take on Middlesbrough in the FA Cup round 3 replay. Jose Mourinho’s troops are eager to give fans some cheer; therefore, home win should be considered even though Harry Kane remains in the recovery room. In his absence, a man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Korea international Son, who has served his ban.
Tottenham are a real force to be reckoned with at home, which is yet another reason why we are tempted to put our money on the Premier League outfit. The Boro, on the other hand, did well to hold Spurs to a 1-1 draw in the original fixture, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in Tuesday’s football game. Since John Woodgate’s men are not regarded as good travellers, home win should be considered.
Highlighted Player (Christian Eriksen):
Christian Eriksen born on 14th of February 1992 is a Danish football who plays as a midfielder for Tottenham Hotspur. Eriksen played in the youth of Odense BK and Ajax Amsterdam where he got picked up by Tottenham Hotspur after 3 seasons.

So far Eriksen played for over 200 club games for Ajax and Tottenham Hotspur. Eriksen is known for his great passing skills and game overview. In his career Eriksen managed to become national champion with Ajax 3 times and won several individual prices for being one of the most talented player of the moment.
Highlighted Team (Middlesbrough):
Middlesbrough is a professional football club that have been balancing between the top two divisions of England’s league system in the modern history. Boro have been playing their home games at the Riverside Stadium since 1995 and their shirt colour is red. The capacity of the Riverside Stadium is 34,742. Middlesbrough impressed in the 2015/2016 Championship campaign and they did really well to secure promotion to the English top flight. Newcastle United and Sunderland are regarded as the club’s main rivals, but there is a rivalry with Leeds United as well.
Middlesbrough made it to the FA Cup final in 1997, but Chelsea proved to be a big catch for the Boro in the title game (0-2). However, the Riverside Stadium outfit did remarkably well to win the League Cup trophy in 2004, with the team beating Bolton Wanderers in the final. George Boateng, Stewart Downing, Juninho Paulista, Gareth Southgate, Jonathan Woodgate, Yakubu Aiyegbeni, Tuncay Sanli and Hamilton Ricard are the star footballers who left their mark at Middlesbrough.
