MICHAEL Carrick has made one change to his Middlesbrough team at Watford, with Micah Hamilton replacing Riley McGree.
It's a first Championship start for Hamilton, who joined from Manchester City in the summer.
McGree starred in the wins over Stoke and West Brom but that came after a spell on the sidelines and Carrick has stressed the need to be careful with players returning from injuries.
Matt Clarke returns to the squad at Vicarage Road after missing the last two games but has to settle for a place on the bench, with George Edmundson keeping his place in the defence alongside Rav van den Berg.
Tommy Conway is still missing.
Tom Cleverley has made six changes to his Watford team on the back of their heavy midweek defeat at Preston.
MIDDLESBROUGH: Dieng, Ayling, van den Berg, Edmundson, Borges; Morris, Hackney; Doak, Azaz, Hamilton, Latte Lath
Subs: Brynn, Barlaser, Clarke, McGree, Burgzorg, Dijksteel, Jones, McCormick, Forss
WATFORD: Bond; Porteous, Ogbonna, Pollock; Andrews, Dele-Bashiru, Sissoko, Sema; Chakvetadze, Ince; Jebbison.
Subs: Marriott, Louza, Vata, Bayo, Morris, Baah, Ebosele, Larouci, Kayembe
