Crystal Palace will check on Claude Davis, Calvin Andrew and Alan Lee.
Davis (knee) has missed the last two games, while Andrew was involved in a clash of heads against QPR and Lee is nursing a groin problem.
MATCH PREVIEW
One point and one place above the drop zone, Crystal Palace are looking to atone for an unexpectedly lifeless performance at home to QPR last weekend.
The Eagles' 2-0 defeat in that game did little to ease their relegation worries and they are heading for a nervous final-day match against the team immediately below them, Sheffield Wednesday.
Before that - and a game against promoted West Brom - Palace travel to face a Derby side that have kept a clean sheet in four of their last six matches.
Derby are not mathematically safe from the drop but their Championship status is all but secure after a run of only one defeat in seven matches. That loss was against Ipswich in their last match at Pride Park, for which they will be looking to make amends.
