Middlesbrough star Nicky Bailey says the club's fans continue to inspire the side as they look to claim a place in the Capital One Cup semi-finals.

Boro travel to South Wales sitting in third place, but they face a Swansea side who have impressed in the Premier League this season. "They are clearly a good side, they have had some great results and against some of the best teams in the Premier League," Bailey continued. "We know they will go into the game as favourites, but we have our own qualities and know we are capable of giving them a game. "Promotion remains our aim, and I am sure the fans want us to win promotion above all - but a cup run is always good thing and for us to get to this stage has provided us with a boost."
