Game takes a back seat at the Riversidepublished at 14:45 British Summer Time
Middlesbrough v Bristol City (15:00 BST)
The Riverside is the venue for what is sure to be an emotional afternoon for everyone associated with Bristol City.
Robins boss Liam Manning is taking a leave of absence after the passing of his baby son Theo, with assistant Chris Hogg taking charge this afternoon.
Hogg admitted the tragedy had 'affected everyone' but hopes City's players can control their emotions during the 90 minutes.
A minute's applause is planned before kick-off while both sets of players will wear black armbands.
City have drawn their past three games and have an excellent record on Teeside, winning six of their past nine visits and going unbeaten in the last five.
Boro boss Michael Carrick has seen his side pick up eight points from their four home league games, though they did allow Watford to come from behind to claim the points at Vicarage Road in their most recent outing.
