Derby County’s Sky Bet League One fixture at home to Lincoln City in December has been brought forward by a day.


The match was due to be played on Saturday 23rd December (3pm kick-off) but will now take place on Friday 22nd December (7:45pm kick-off).

Both clubs have agreed to bring the fixture forward to provide an extra day of recovery for their respective players going into the Christmas games programme.


Last season’s visit of the Imps to Pride Park Stadium saw the teams play out a 1-1 draw with midfielder Conor Hourihane scoring a second-half equaliser for the Rams.
