Derby County will play their second home game in a row at Pride Park Stadium when they go head-to-head with Sheffield Wednesday in the Sky Bet Championship on Sunday (3pm kick-off).
The Rams came up short in a 2-1 defeat to Swansea City on Wednesday night, despite a strong fightback from 2-0 down early on against the Swans and will be hoping to get back to winning ways at the first time of asking against the Owls.
Danny Röhl’s Sheffield Wednesday side have 22 points in the league, two more than Derby. They have six wins and four draws to their name after 17 games and the Owls come into the fixture off the back of a 2-0 win at Hull City on Tuesday night.
Team News
In-form striker Jerry Yates will be available once more after he was forced to miss the Rams’ last game against Swansea City, his parent club, under the terms of the loan deal. He had scored three goals in as many games before missing the midweek clash.
Midfielder David Ozoh will not feature despite stepping up his workload to return to training this week, following hamstring and quad injuries that have seen him sidelined since September. He is yet to return to full training with the group.
Defender Ryan Nyambe is unavailable as he continues his recovery from a knee injury suffered against Millwall in October.
