The Premier League have now announced the Match Day officials that will take charge of the game against Southampton this weekend.
Middlesbrough travel to Southampton on Sunday December 11 for the game at St Mary’s Stadium and the match carries a 2.15pm kick off.
Referee: Stuart Attwell
Linesmen: E Smart and D Eaton
Fourth Official: N Swarbrick
Match Day referee Attwell has officiated ten games in 2016/17 with a return of 35 yellow cards and three red cards.
This season his highest card count was seven yellows and two reds in the Oxford v Swindon Town game.
He took in 44 matches in 2015-16 and in those games, across all competitions and football divisions, he handed out a total of 118 yellow cards and four red cards.
He was most card happy in the match between Plymouth and Crawley on October 3 with a total of six yellows being shown.
Let`s hope it`s not another repeat and more of our players edge closer to automatic bans.
