Middlesbrough boss Karanka: Easy to prepare for Arsenal

Middlesbrough boss Aitor Karanka says they'll be well prepared for FA Cup opponents Arsenal.

Boro have already knocked Manchester City out of the competition.

"No, because in the same was as against Manchester City, it's easy to analyse them. It's difficult to play against them, but it's easy to analyse," said the Spaniard.

"It's going to be a massive game because everybody is expecting that we can beat them. Obviously we can beat them because we played very well against Liverpool and we beat Manchester City.

"But if we go there thinking it's going to be easy and we can beat them without playing our best, we could make a big, big mistake."
