Andrew Crofts has warned of the threat posed to Albion’s play-off aspirations by out-of-form Middlesbrough.
The Seagulls almost lost to a Leicester side winless for seven matches at The Amex a week ago.
Boro’s form is even worse, one victory in ten games wrecking their own hopes of finishing in the top six in the Championship.
Crofts believes they could still be a menace at The Riverside today as Albion seek the first of three wins from their five remaining outings to achieve manager Gus Poyet’s play-off target.
The experienced midfielder said: “I’ve played against Boro a few times. They are not on a great run but that is sometimes dangerous because that run has got to change.
“Hopefully that won’t change on Saturday. We will be going up there nice and positive and looking for a result.
“We’ve got five massive games. We are in a good position at the moment but I think there will be a few twists and turns before the end of the season, like there always are in this League.”
Crofts is in contention for the trip to the North-East after starting two of the last three away fixtures.
