Derby County’s starting line-up for their Sky Bet Championship clash with Bristol City at Ashton Gate has been revealed (3pm kick-off).
The Rams come into the game looking to put points on the board following a 4-2 defeat against Sheffield Wednesday three days ago.
Paul Warne has made three changes from the side that started against the Owls on New Year’s Day.
Left-back Callum Elder returns to the starting picture and will make his 18th league appearance of the season for the Rams.
Nathaniel Mendez-Laing shall lead the team out of the tunnel at Ashton Gate, after coming on as a second-half substitute on Wednesday.
Midfielder Ebou Adams is ruled out of the clash in the south-west owing to concussion, which was sustained in the closing stages of Wednesday’s game. Liam Thompson will start in the middle of the park, making his 17th appearance in all competitions this term.
Fellow midfielder Ben Osborn has returned to the squad and will begin on the bench after spending the last three games on the sidelines with a muscle issue.
