In the lead-up to the match getting underway, dcfc.co.uk has brought together all the key information you need to know...

Striker Conor Washington (ankle) is making good progress with his return to fitness but remains out of action.

Pre-Match Thoughts
First Team Coach Matt Hamshaw spoke to RamsTV to preview Tuesday evening's fixture.
He said: "Our away record has been good. Their manager has obviously worked in the Premier League, albeit for a short period, but he's done it at a high level so it will be a tough game but it is one we are looking forward to."
Forward Tyreece John-Jules sat down with RamsTV and previewed the side's second away fixture in four days.
He said: "I'm happy. I've really settled in here and I feel I have settled in well with the lads and the staff. When I was injured earlier in the season, everyone looked after to me so it felt like the right decision to stay. I just want to push on now for the back end of the season. The gaffer has been building me up slowly and game-by-game, so I always felt like I wanted to stay here for the season and finish what we have started."
