Middlesbrough are confident they can retain their Premier League status this season despite dropping into the bottom three, says midfielder Adam Clayton.
Boro lost 2-0 at Stoke City in their last league fixture, their 10th in a row without a win, and were also beaten in the FA Cup by Manchester City.
The Teessiders, who are three points behind Crystal Palace in the table, are at home to Manchester United on Sunday.
"We'll never give up," 28-year-old Clayton told BBC Tees.
"We've been under the cosh a bit recently, from all angles, we'll come out fighting and we need to show that every week now from the end of the season.
