Adam Reach has declared that Middlesbrough will take their Championship promotion push one game at a time following last weekend's impressive victory over Derby County.

Boro temporarily climbed to the top of the table as a result of their 2-0 win at The Riverside, although they now sit one place behind leaders Bournemouth heading into the next round of fixtures.

Ipswich Town are next on the list for Aitor Karanka's men, with Reach insisting that his side do not fear anybody in their quest for a top-two spot.

"It's about the next game," the Northern Echo quotes him as saying. "We have a couple of tough games coming up but we've just played arguably the toughest game and we won 2-0.

"If you can beat the top of the league I don't think you should fear anyone else but we'll take each game as it comes. You've got to say, whether you are at the top of the table or the bottom of the table that is the biggest test because it's the next game and it's the most important game.

"We don't live in the past at this club, in the dressing room we forget about the last result as soon as it's over and look ahead to the next game."

Reach signed a new four-and-a-half-year contract at Boro last month.
