Manager Phillip Cocu has made two changes from last weekend’s game against Hull City for today’s Sky Bet Championship clash against Middlesbrough at Pride Park Stadium (3pm kick-off)
And it’s a return to the starting XI for forward Jack Marriott.

Substitutes: Hamer, Wisdom, Paterson, Dowell, Waghorn, Evans, Lowe.
Middlesbrough: Pears, Howson, Ayala (C), McNair, Fry, Saville, Tavernier, Wing, Assombalonga, Johnson, Browne.
