The Premier League have now announced the Match Day officials that will take charge of the game against Leicester City on Monday.

Middlesbrough host Leicester City on Monday January 2 for the game at the Riverside Stadium and the match carries a 12.30pm kick off for screening on Sky Sports.

Referee: Robert Madley
Linesmen: M Perry and P Kirkup
Fourth Official: J Moss

Match Day referee Madley has officiated 17 games in 2016/17 with a return of 75 yellow cards and two red cards.

This season his highest card count was eight between Tottenham and Liverpool in August.

He took in 35 matches in 2015-16 and in those games, across all competitions and football divisions, he handed out a total of 96 yellow cards and six red cards.

He was most card happy in the match between Chelsea and West Ham in March with eight yellows being shown, prior to that Chelsea and Southampton in October saw seven yellows.

Let`s hope it`s not another repeat and more of our players edge closer to automatic bans.
