Cocu Makes Three Changes For Fulham Clash

Manager Phillip Cocu has made three changes from Saturday’s draw against Huddersfield Town for this evening’s Sky Bet Championship clash against Fulham (7:45pm kick-off).

Ben Hamer returns in goal after missing the game against his parent club under of the terms of his loan agreement from the Terriers, with Kelle Roos reverting back to the substitutes' bench.

Duane Holmes misses out with a lower leg injury, meaning Graeme Shinnie makes his first start in the Championship since the 1-0 victory against Preston North End in November.

Elsewhere, Chris Martin moves to the bench as Jason Knight returns to the starting XI.

It’s a special landmark for Rams skipper Wayne Rooney this evening as he plays his 500th game in English football.

Here are the teams:

Derby County: Hamer, Wisdom, Forsyth, Shinnie, Waghorn, Lawrence, Clarke, Rooney (C), Davies, Knight, Bird.

Substitutes: Roos, Jozefzoon, Marriott, Martin, Lowe, Bogle, Sibley.

Fulham: Rodak, Hector, Odoi, Johansen, Mitrovic, Cairney (C), Ream, Decordova-Reid, Arter, Bryan, Knockaert.

Substitutes: Bettinelli, McDonald, Kabano, Cavaleiro, Christie, Sessengnon, Kamara.
