Pre-match preview

Derby County

Derby's problems have grown since the heavy home defeat to Norwich City. Sammie Szmodics was forced off with a knee injury during that game, and Ryan Hedges has since suffered a hamstring problem, while Joe Ward remains a doubt and is not expected to start at right-back.

Matt Clarke and Patrick Agyemang both returned to full training this week after their own spells on the sidelines. Eustace otherwise looks set to stick with Isaac Gordon and Oscar Fraulo, who each made their first starts in the last five matches against Norwich, while Jacob Widell Zetterström is expected to continue in goal ahead of Josh Vickers and Carlton Morris should again lead the line.

Bolton Wanderers

Bolton could be missing two midfielders for the trip to Derby. Josh Sheehan's foot injury makes his availability uncertain, while Atsuki Ito faces a scan on a possible muscular problem sustained in the win over Charlton. Ito is still expected to start if fit.

Jack Bonham is set to continue in goal, with Gavin Bazunu doubtful, while Eoin Toal and Ethan Erhahon remain unavailable after both featured in Bolton's last five games. Luca Stephenson is expected to keep his place at right-back ahead of Gaizka Larrazabal, and Sam Dalby should lead the attack after scoring three goals in his recent appearances.
