Middlesbrough will step up their pre-season preparations ahead of the 2022/23 EFL Championship season when they take on French giants Marseille in an eye-catching pre-season friendly this weekend.
Chris Wilder's side missed out on a play-off place on the final day of the 2021/22 Championship season, but they have already made some impressive moves in the transfer market this summer, bringing in Man City goalkeeper Zack Steffan and wing-back Ryan Giles.
Their opponents, Marseille, coasted to a second-place finish in Ligue 1 last season and will be playing Champions League football in the 2022/23 campaign. This will represent a major test for the Teessiders.
Here is all the key viewing information ahead of this exciting pre-season friendly.
