The personal hearing requested by Aitor Karanka after he was charged with improper conduct for his behaviour in the final seconds of Boro's clash with Blackburn will be held this week.
Boro's boss responded to the charge ahead of the FA's deadline last Friday and requested the hearing so he could explain his actions in person.
But Karanka faces the prospect of having to watch Boro's clash with table-topping Derby from the stands if the FA issue the Spaniard with a touchline ban.
Boro's boss is alleged to have pushed fourth official David Coote when tempers flared following Blackburn's controversial last-gasp leveller at the Riverside last month.
Karanka apologised for his behaviour immediately after the game and again the following week, when he suggested he was going to request the personal hearing so he could explain his actions to the FA.
