Derby County v Palace

Pride Park, Wednesday 7.45pm

Shaun Derry

Team news

Shaun Derry is doubtful as he is recovering from a hip injury sustained in the defeat to Wolves at the weekend.

He has been unable to train but will go up with the squad anyway as Aki Riihilahti is out after hurting his thigh against Wolves.

Andy Johnson has a bruised foot and will miss out while Dougie Freedman is suspended.

Derby County will be without the services of Giorgi Kinkladze who has a back injury, so Nick Chadwick on loan from Everton, will step in his place. Former Newcastle and Wimbledon defender Warren Barton is suspended.

DERBY COUNTY (from): Grant, Jackson, Mills, Elliott, Boertien, Bolder, Lee, Burley, Morris, Ravanelli, Chadwick, Zavagno, Murray, Tudgay, McLeod, Robinson, Camp, Oakes.

CRYSTAL PALACE (from): Berthelin, Symons, Powell, Popovic, Butterfield, Mullins, Derry, Riihilahti, Gray, Adebola, Kolinko, Black, Akinbiyi, Routledge, Granville, Thompson, Antwi, Borrowdale.

One to watch

Georgi Kinkladze

The Georgian wizard may be well past his best, but on his day he can still unlock even the tightest of defences with dazzling skill.
