The Boro is coming off an impressive performance, holding another powerhouse team, Manchester City, to a 1-1 draw on the road at the Etihad Stadium on Nov. 5, as per the Mirror.
City scored the opening goal in the 43rd minute in the first half with a close-range shot from Argentine striker Sergio Agüero, who scored his 150th goal for the club, from a remarkable assist from Belgian winger Kevin De Bruyne.
The hosts continued to dominate ball possession and were persistent in their attacks throughout the game, but head coach Aitor Karanka's side did the unexpected by netting the equalizer in stoppage time, courtesy of a header by midfielder Marten de Roon.
Meanwhile, Chelsea demolished Everton, 5-0, at the Stamford Bridge on Nov. 5 before taking the international break, Daily Mail Online reported.
Belgian winger Eden Hazard scored a brace while Marcos Alonso, Diego Costa, and Pedro all contributed one goal apiece to complete the five-goal masterpiece of head coach Antonio Conte's squad.
Hazard hit the opener in the 19th minute before Alonso doubled the lead just a minute later. Costa made it a 3-0 count at the halftime break with his goal in the 42nd.
Hazard then scored his second goal of the game in the 56th. Pedro sealed the win in the 65th with a tap into an empty net after Everton keeper Maarten Stekelenburg blocked a shot by Hazard, who went for a hat trick.
