Jelle Vossen says Boro are gunning for revenge at Blackpool.
The rock bottom Tangerines nicked a point in a 1-1 draw back in September after Boro had bossed the game - and that still smarts.
“We are looking for revenge because we didn’t win the home game,” said the Belgian, who netted in the 3-1 win over Charlton.
“We dominated but did not get all three points and we must put that right this time. That is the big motivation for us.
“The closer to the end of the season, the bigger the motivation in every game now.”
But he warns Boro must be wary of a side battling for survival.
“Some of the guys have warned me for the bad pitch but that can’t be an excuse,” he said. “This is a crazy division so it doesn’t matter they are bottom of the rankings, we still need to go there and dominate.
“We are expected to win so that is a mental test for us to keep our feet on the ground and stay concentrated.
“But the manager keeps everybody focussed and you know if you don’t play well there is somebody waiting to take your place.”
