Derby County Head Coach Paul Warne has named his starting line-up for this afternoon’s pre-season friendly with Shrewsbury Town (3pm kick-off).


The Rams will be looking to get more match minutes into as many players as possible today, in their second game of the week ahead of the 2024/25 Sky Bet Championship season.


Derby’s latest signing David Ozoh will make his first start since joining on Wednesday and playing 20 minutes in that evening’s friendly against Chesterfield.

Meanwhile, Ben Osborn will return to the starting line-up after being rested on Wednesday night in order to build up his training time and Joe Ward makes his first pre-season appearance after recovering from injury.

The Team

Derby County Starting XI: Vickers (GK), Ward, Nelson, Forsyth, Cashin, Ozoh, Blackett-Taylor, Osborn, Barkhuizen, Yates, Collins.

On The Bench: Luthra (GK), Adams, Nyambe, Thompson, Goudmijn, Wilson, Elder, Mendez-Laing, Washington, Jackson, Robinson.
