Nugent And Russell Return For Reading Clash

David Nugent and Johnny Russell have both returned to the Derby County starting line-up for this afternoon’s Sky Bet Championship match against Reading, kick-off: 3pm.

The former missed the Leeds United win due to illness, whilst the latter has been absent from the back-to-back away victories with a groin problem.

Joe Ledley misses today’s Remembrance Day clash with the Royals with a minor hamstring problem, whilst Chris Martin drops to the substitutes bench.

Bradley Johnson will play in the holding midfield position, alongside Tom Huddlestone, to allow Russell to take his place in his natural wide berth.

Derby County: Carson, Wisdom, Keogh (C), Davies, Forsyth; Huddlestone, Johnson; Russell, Nugent, Lawrence; Winnall

Substitutes: Mitchell, Martin, Baird, Pearce, Weimann, Vydra, Thorne
