Derby County remain unchanged from Wednesday night’s emphatic 1-4 victory over West Bromwich Albion for this afternoon’s early kick off against Middlesbrough.


Manager Frank Lampard has elected to keep with the same team that delivered for his side during the week but the only change comes on the bench as Florian Jozefzoon replaces Mason Bennett.

That means Jack Marriott has the chance to make it four goals in four games this afternoon as he leads the line, whilst Martyn Waghorn also keeps his place.

Scott Malone, fresh from scoring his first goal for the club, continues at left-back despite limping out of Wednesday night’s fixture.

Here are the teams:

Middlesbrough: Randolph, Friend, Ayala, Clayton, Assombalonga, Howson, McNair, Downing, Fry, Flint, Besic.

Substitutes: Lonegan, Batth, Braithwaite, Hugill, McQueen, Saville, Gestede.

Derby County: Carson, Bogle, Keogh, Tomori, Malone, Huddlestone, Wilson, Mount, Lawrence, Waghorn, Marriott.

Substitutes: Roos, Forsyth, Davies, Johnson, Jozefzoon, Holmes, Nugent.
