Team News: Fleetwood Town Vs Derby County

Derby County’s Interim Manager Liam Rosenior has made two changes to his starting line-up for this afternoon’s Sky Bet League One fixture at Fleetwood Town (3pm kick-off).


Defender Craig Forsyth and forward Lewis Dobbin are the players to come into the starting line-up, with Haydon Roberts and Korey Smith making way to the bench.

Both Forsyth and Dobbin will make their first league starts of the season against the Cod Army, with their only previous minutes from the off this term being in the Carabao Cup Round One win at Mansfield Town last week.

Those are the only changes from the 0-0 draw at Shrewsbury Town on Tuesday night with skipper Curtis Davies (quad) and fellow defender James Chester (achilles) still unavailable.

Goalkeeper Joseph Anang, who joined the Rams on loan from Premier League outfit West Ham United last weekend, is not included in the squad after picking up an injury in training this week.

Derby will be backed by a sold-out away end for their first-ever trip to Highbury Stadium, with 1,100 tickets snapped up by the travelling faithful.

Fleetwood Town: Lynch (GK), Andrew, Wiredu, Vela (C), G Garner, Omochere, Nsiala, Batty, Rooney, Macadam, Earl.

Substitutes: Stolarczyk (GK), J Garner, Hayes, Johnston, Baker, White, Glenfield.

Derby County: Wildsmith (GK), Forsyth, Hourihane, Cashin, Barkhuizen, Bird (C), Collins, Mendez-Laing, Dobbin, Stearman, Knight.

Substitutes: Loach (GK), Rooney, Roberts, Smith, Thompson, Sibley, McGoldrick.
