Middlesbrough defender Jonathan Woodgate has insisted that his side will go into Monday's Championship playoff final as underdogs and all the pressure is on opponents Norwich City.
The Boro captain could make his final bow for the club in the showpiece match at Wembley, as the Teesiders look to end their six-year exile from the Premier League.
Woodgate believes that Norwich are expected to win the game, which could work in Boro's favour.
"This is a one-off game, it's going to be tense, both teams are going to be nervous," he told Gazette Live.
"You look at Norwich and they are going to be the favourites. We have beaten them twice but pretty much every single one of their players is a Premier League player.
"Apart from one, I think all their team played in the Premier last year. The onus is on them, the pressure is on them because their players are bigger than ours."
Middlesbrough reached the final by overcoming Brentford 5-1 on aggregate.
