FOLARIN BALOGUN will make his first Middlesbrough start in this evening's FA Cup fourth-round game at Manchester United.

Having come off the bench in the last three matches, the Arsenal loanee has been handed a starting spot at Old Trafford.

Balogun replaces fellow loanee Aaron Connolly, who drops down to the substitutes' bench.

The attacking switch is the only change from the Boro side that started last weekend's win over Coventry.

Manchester United boss Ralf Rangnick has made four changes to his starting line-up, with Paul Pogba returning to the side for the first time in three months.

MAN UTD (4-3-3): Henderson; Dalot, Maguire, Varane, Shaw; Pogba, McTominay, Fernandes; Sancho, Ronaldo, Rashford.

Subs: Grant (gk), Heaton (gk), Jones, Wan-Bissaka, Fred, Hannibal, Mata, Matic, Elanga.

MIDDLESBROUGH (3-5-2): Lumley; Dijksteel, Fry, McNair; Jones, Crooks, Howson, Tavernier, Taylor; Balogun, Sporar.

Subs: Daniels (gk), Boyd-Munce, Payero, Peltier, Wood, Watmore, Bamba, Connolly, Coburn.
