Team News
Defender James Chester (calf) and goalkeeper Joseph Anang (arm) remain the only absentees ahead of Saturday's match.
Warne's Words
Head Coach Paul Warne sat down with RamsTV to preview the final game before Christmas.
He said: "You just have to take the titles away from each team, it’s just 11 men against 11 men.
"If Forest Green get two or three wins on the spin they can really catapult themselves in a good position like any team in this league. They’ve picked up good points against good teams and it’s going to be very difficult.
"Teams that are dedicated to the cause and their team shap, and have real togetherness which they have in abundance, are difficult to play against."
From The Dressing Room
Defender Craig Forsyth spoke to RamsTV ahead of Saturday's match.
He said: "We've watched the video on Forest Green. They are a team that like to play out, they like to play football so we'll hopefully have a game plan for that and try and take the game to them with us being at home and make it a tough afternoon for them."
Match Officials
Ross Joyce as been appointed as the head referee for Saturday's clash and he will be assisted by Robert Atkin and Andrew Hendley.
Gareth Viccars is on fourth official duties for the match.
Joyce has taken charge of 14 games so far this campaign including the Rams' 0-0 draw away at Fleetwood Town back in August.
He's handed out 50 yellow cards, one red card and awarded one penalty across those 14 matches.
