TEAM NEWS: Leicester City Vs Derby County

Derby County’s final Sky Bet Championship line-up of 2025, taking on Leicester City at King Power Stadium, has been confirmed (7:45pm kick-off).

Head Coach John Eustace has made two changes to the side which drew 1-1 with Birmingham City on Boxing Day, as both Ebou Adams and Dion Sanderson are restored to the starting line-up.

Adams will wear the armband for the Rams, returning in place of the suspended Joe Ward, while Danny Batth reverts to the substitutes' bench to make way for on-loan Sanderson - who was ineligible to face parent club Birmingham last time out.

There is also a welcome return to the matchday squad for club captain Lewis Travis. The summer arrival from Blackburn Rovers has missed almost three months with a calf injury but is fit to take his place amongst the substitutes against the Foxes.

Leicester City: Stolarczyk (GK), Nelson, Okoli, James, Fatawu, Ayew, Mavididi, De Cordova-Reid, Choudhury (C), Skipp, L Thomas.

Substitutes: Begović (GK), Faes, Carranza, Ricardo, Page, Monga, Ramsey, S Thomas, Aluko.

Derby County: Zetterström (GK), Clarke, Langås, Agyemang, Brewster, Thompson, Elder, Brereton Díaz, Sanderson, Adams (C), Clark.

Substitutes: O’Donnell (GK), Forsyth, Batth, Blackett-Taylor, Weimann, Salvesen, Jackson, Travis, Nelson.
