Probert The Man In The Middle Against Villa

Lee Probert has been appointed as the Match Referee for Derby County's Sky Bet Championship home fixture against Aston Villa at Pride Park Stadium on Saturday (3pm kick-off).

Probert has officiated 14 first-team games so far this term across the Premier League and EFL, from which he has produced a total of 23 yellow and four red cards.

This will be the second time that he has officiated a Rams game this season. He was in charge of Derby's 2-0 home defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers back in August.

Probert will be assisted by Andrew Garratt and Daniel Hobathan on the lines, whilst Simon Hooper has been appointed as the fourth official.
