A Gaston Ramirez header was enough to give Middlesbrough only a second win since August and leave Hull City stuck in the English Premier League relegation zone.
Middlesbrough beat Hull City 1-0 this morning.
Ramirez, the game's outstanding player, nodded in Viktor Fischer's corner after being left unmarked at the back post.
Hull, who have lost eight of their past 10 league games, rallied late on but did not deserve a point.
Meanwhile, Everton will take on Watford in the Premier League at 1.30am Sunday.
