Gary Rowett has named the same starting XI for the third successive Sky Bet Championship fixture in a row ahead of Derby County’s Boxing Day clash with Hull City, kick-off: 3pm.


Maybe unsurprisingly, the Rams show an unchanged matchday squad – with the same substitutes bench also being called upon at the KCOM Stadium.

Tom Huddlestone and Curtis Davies will face their former club this afternoon.

On top of that, Craig Forsyth, the Rams’ 28-year-old Scottish international left back, makes his 150th Derby appearance.

Hull City: McGregor, Irvine, Hector, Grosicki, Dicko, Toral, Larsson, Dawson (C), Tomori, Stewart, Aina

Substitutes: Marshall, Diomande, Batty, Bowen, Henriksen, Clark, Clackstone

Derby County: Carson, Baird, Keogh (C), Davies, Forsyth; Huddlestone, Ledley; Weimann, Vydra, Johnson; Nugent

Substitutes: Mitchell, Russell, Martin, Lawrence, Wisdom, Winnall, Thorne
