    After their shock defeat by Blackburn a week ago, Gaston Ramirez's double earned a 2-1 win over Wolves on Friday that saw Middlesbrough leapfrog Hull into second place in the Championship.

    Boro are just a point behind league leaders Burnley - with a game in hand - and have their sights firmly set on returning to the Premier League for the first time since 2009.

    But tonight's opponents Rotherham will be no pushovers, having registered back-to-back wins for the first time since December with a shock victory in Saturday's South Yorkshire derby against Sheffield Wednesday.

    Hull are likely to lose ground at the top of the Championship tonight.

    While all of their promotion rivals are in league action, the Tigers are aiming to reach the last eight of the FA Cup.

    They're hosting holders Arsenal in a fifth-round replay, and it's goalless 20 minutes into the first half.
