- 1' George Saville is having a superb {COMPETITION} campaign — that is 0 goals this season for the midfielder.
- 6' Charlton Athletic FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 11' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Britt Assombalonga suffering a number of foals already.
- 16' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Middlesbrough FC that had 387 games and scored 474 goals.
- 21' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Charlton Athletic FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 26' Charlton Athletic FC is showing some good football. However, Charlton Athletic FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 31' Adam Clayton has been relatively quiet despite scoring 1 goals in his last 387 appearances.
- 36' Middlesbrough FC are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Charlton Athletic FC's shape.
- 41' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jonathan Leko, as he is very good at scoring at Riverside Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 46' The crowd applauds Joe Ledley as he leaves the pitch. Lyle Taylor steps in for Charlton Athletic FC.
- 51' Dillon Phillips needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.

- 64' Another substitution for Middlesbrough FC to replace Britt Assombalonga by Stephen Walker on 64 minute.
- 67' Jonathan Leko picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
