Manager Phillip Cocu has made six changes to the side which beat Northampton Town 4-2 at Pride Park Stadium in the Emirates FA Cup Fourth Round replay on Tuesday night for this afternoon’s Sky Bet Championship fixture against Swansea City (3pm kick-off).


Ben Hamer returns in goal for the Rams, replacing Kelle Roos who moves back to the substitutes' bench, whilst Craig Forsyth returns to the back four at left-back.

Martyn Waghorn, Jayden Bogle and Max Bird also make a return to the starting XI whilst Graeme Shinnie, Curtis Davies, Jack Marriott, Chris Martin and Scott Malone revert to the bench.

Jason Knight is named in the starting line-up after sitting out Derby’s 4-0 victory over Stoke City at Pride Park Stadium eight days ago.

The Academy graduate is the only change from that particular night, with Martin making way.

Captain Wayne Rooney is eyeing his fourth goal in as many games for the Rams this afternoon.

Here are the teams in full:

Swansea City: Woodman, Guehi, Rodon, Grimes, Routledge, Brewster, Ayew, Roberts, Naughton, Byers, Gallagher.

Substitutes: Mulder, Fulton, Dyer, Wilmot, Dhanda, Bidwell, Cullen.

Derby County: Hamer, Wisdom, Forsyth, Waghorn, Lawrence, Clarke, Holmes, Rooney, Bogle, Knight, Bird.

Substitutes: Roos, Shinnie, Marriott, Martin, Davies, Malone, Whittaker.
