Middlesbrough are beefing up security ahead of a potentially volatile atmosphere when they host Derby County at the weekend.
The two sides are embroiled in an off-field matter with Boro chairman Steve Gibson launching a compensation claim of more than £40million against the Rams.
Saturday sees the two sides meet at the Riverside Stadium and the Telegraph report that a number of measures have been implemented in a bid to minimise the threat of matters escalating.
