Derby County vs Cardiff City - Derby at full strength for crunch clash

Play-off chasing Derby have no new injury concerns for the visit of Sky Bet Championship high-fliers Cardiff.

Derby boss Gary Rowett reported some sore legs after the home defeat to Middlesbrough, and Craig Forsyth, Marcus Olsson and Bradley Johnson will be among those checked after not playing for several weeks before Saturday.

Andreas Weimann could return to the starting line-up after being restricted by a shoulder injury ahead of the Middlesbrough game.

Joe Ledley will also be hoping for a recall against his former club after dropping to the bench on Saturday.

Callum Paterson could return as Cardiff seek to cement the second automatic promotion spot.

Paterson featured for only the final three minutes of Saturday’s win against Nottingham Forest after boss Neil Warnock had considered his recent workload.

Sol Bamba should also start after proving his fitness in the second half of the Forest win following a groin problem.

Lee Peltier will be assessed after a heavy fall on the weekend, but Craig Bryson is ineligible to play against his parent club.
