A date and kick-off time has been confirmed Wolves’ Emirates FA Cup fifth round tie away to Blackburn Rovers in February.

Six-time FA Cup winners Blackburn head to Teesside for the third round and, like Boro, have obvious priorities in the league as they make a serious push for a play-off place this season. Having reached round five and the quarter finals in the last two years though, Eustace is well aware of how special the competition can be.

Reminiscent of recent league meeting on Teesside between the two in which Boro enjoyed possession without an end product before being downed by a controversial own goal, Boro were enjoying the ball in this one without being able to break down the stubborn Blackburn defence.

Blackburn Rovers progressed to the fourth round of the FA Cup as a second-half strike from Andreas Weimann secured a 1-0 victory in their all-Championship tie at Middlesbrough.

A team has emerged as a front-runner in the five-team transfer race to sign a highly-rated Liverpool youngster.

Middlesbrough's understudies fluffed their lines as another home defeat to Blackburn Rovers ended their FA Cup hopes at the third-round stage.

John Eustace still expects a tough and competitive game at Middlesbrough despite the reality of both teams rotating their squads. Blackburn Rovers have an excellent record at The Riverside Stadium and beat Michael Carrick's side 1-0 at the end of November. Few who started that game will likely be in the XIs when the teams drop at 11am on Saturday.
