Our Under-21s head for Derby County on Monday evening with an eye on climbing back into the play-off places.
Victory against the Rams would see Boro move up to fifth in the table, behind Norwich on goal difference.
Lead coach Mark Tinkler will be demanding more from his players after last week's kamikaze victory at Sunderland.
Boro rattled seven past the Black Cats - Matthew Hoppe and Sonny Finch scoring twice, and Joe Gibson marking his return from injury with a goal - but conceded five in what was a 12-goal affair at Eppleton.
Boro have already beaten Derby this season, back in August when goals from Isaac Fletcher, Jeremy Sivi, and Max Howells secured a 3-1 success.
The Rams prop up the division, having lost all 10 outings so far this season.
Here's a reminder of last week's 7-5 win at Sunderland.
