Gareth Southgate has handed Mohammed Shawky a start in midfield in place of the injured Didier Digard with Mido given a place on the bench.
Tuncay plays as the lone striker with Jeremie Aliadier tasked to get forward whenever possible to support. Mido earns himself a recall to the squad with Afonso Alves also included amongst the substitutes.
Southgate keeps faith with the same defensive line-up that secured a draw last Saturday at home to Arsenal.
Josh Walker is also back in the squad with David Wheater and left-back Andrew Taylor giving the Boro boss plenty of options should he need to alter his game plan which appears set to grab a draw.
Boro: Turnbull,Riggott,Pogatetz,Huth,McMahon,A Johnson,Arca,Shawky,Aliadiere,Downing,Tuncay
Subs (from): Jones,Taylor,Mido,Emnes,Alves,Wheater,Walker
