TEAM NEWS…

There are no fresh injury concerns for Derby ahead of Saturday’s game.

As Wayne Rooney will be leading the Rams from the touchline, he has decided not to include himself in the matchday squad.


Striker Martyn Waghorn has recovered from a knock to the back, which forced him off at half-time in the 3-0 loss at Middlesbrough on Wednesday night, and is available for selection.


Polish international midfielder Krystian Bielik has not been included in the matchday squad for the last two matches, after recently recovering from a long-term knee injury, but could feature this time around.

Bielik played in a behind-closed-doors Under-23s match against Birmingham City last week to build up his sharpness.


Winger Jordon Ibe was unwell earlier in the week and has now returned to training, but he needs time to build up his fitness before being considered for first-team selection.

PRE-MATCH THOUGHTS…


Speaking to RamsTV ahead of Saturday's game, Derby's Player-Coach Wayne Rooney said: “The season starts now and the players are ready. They have prepared well and training has been really good so it is an opportunity for us. We have got two home games coming up and we need to start getting points.

“In terms of quality, attitude, determination to put things right, the players know what we expect of them and they have been given that message. I am confident that I will get a good response from them.

“Confidence is not easy to switch on and off. You obviously have to keep building on your confidence and keep working and find ways out of bad moments, which we are in. There is no denying that, we are in a bad moment.

“In terms of the players, they need to find a release to some of the opportunities we are getting, they need to let their shots go more, take more risks in the right areas of the pitch.

“There are messages the players have been given this morning and I am pleased with how they trained this morning. They will be ready; I am sure of that.”


More pre-match comments from Rooney and goalkeeper David Marshall can be found across dcfc.co.uk and also on RamsTV.

EFL SUBSTITUTES RULE…

Following consultation with clubs, the EFL Board has agreed to increase the permitted number of substitutes to five in all Sky Bet EFL fixtures for the remainder of the 2020/21 season.


Regulation 33.4 has been amended to permit:

* Championship Clubs to name up to nine substitutes in their matchday squad, with five permitted to take to the pitch in any fixture.

* League One and League Two Clubs can name up to seven substitutes in their match day squad, again with five permitted to take to the pitch.

GOAL LINE TECHNOLOGY…

Goal line technology is, once again, being used at all Sky Bet Championship matches during the 2020/21 season.

The system was introduced for the start of the 2017/18 campaign and is now entering its fourth full season in the division.

ONLINE PIRACY…

The EFL, alongside all 72 of its member clubs, has launched a campaign aimed at discouraging the illegal streaming of fixtures, warning that doing so will take vital revenue away from clubs


The outbreak of COVID-19 and subsequent behind-closed-doors matches mean that income generated by streaming matches is more important than ever and remains one of the only income streams available at this challenging time.

Illegal streaming, therefore, is having a greater impact on clubs whilst supporters are unable to attend matches. The EFL and its clubs could potentially lose around a third of income from illegal streaming this season, a figure which is potentially much higher when factoring in every illegal stream.

Statistics show that over half of sports fans consume sports content from pirate services at least once a month. Over 7,000 illegal EFL streams have been detected so far this season, with an average of 170 people viewing each stream, totalling almost 1.2million people. Supporters in the UK accessing streams via a VPN are also accessing the stream illegally.

Failure to comply with the terms set out when subscribing to live streams for the EFL is a serious breach and allows the ability to terminate the subscription. The EFL, and clubs streaming through their own services, have very similar rights in their terms and conditions.

The EFL and its clubs take piracy incredibly seriously, working with a specialist security agency to proactively seek out illegal streams on all formats and taking action against businesses and individuals.

Supporters are therefore encouraged to report any illegal streams, or pubs that may be showing EFL content unlawfully, by emailing piracy@efl.com. All emails will be treated confidentially.

STAY AT HOME…

Derby County is continuing to urge supporters to stay away from stadiums when matches are played, with the UK Government advice remaining the same relating to playing behind-closed-doors at this time in the 2020/21 season.


Matches are still being played behind-closed-doors with the safety of supporters, club personnel and the frontline services remaining the principle priority at this time.

Consequently, supporters will not be permitted entry to any area of the stadium and extra security measures around the immediate area including car parks will be in place when staging matches.

Supporters are also urged to maintain social distancing guidelines and avoid congregating outside stadiums or gathering to watch matches, as part of a new campaign message: ‘When we play, please stay away’ ahead of all EFL matches.

The club and the Derbyshire Constabulary are united in one message to fans - support the Rams and 'Watch From Home'.
