Ollie Yates will be the man in the middle when Derby County take on Sky Bet League 2 side Barrow AFC at Pride Park Stadium in the First Round of the Carabao Cup on Saturday afternoon (12pm kick-off).


Yates oversaw 30 games in the 2019/20 season across Sky Bet League 1, League 2, the FA Cup, the Carabao Cup and the EFL Trophy.

The official will be overseeing his first Derby fixture at the weekend, having never previously taken charge of a match featuring the Rams.

Yates will be assisted by Andrew Dallison and Abbas Khan on the lines, whilst Benjamin Speedie has been appointed as the fourth official.
