Team News For Derby County Away

Last updated : 15 October 2016 By .

Leeds United head coach Garry Monk made one change to his starting line-up at Derby County as Stuart Dallas missed out with a thigh strain.

The Northern Ireland winger failed to recover from an injury suffered on international duty and made way for Alex Mowatt as Monk stuck with his favoured 4-2-3-1 formation at Pride Park.

Mowatt’s start was his first in the league since a 1-0 defeat to Huddersfield Town at the start of last month, with Leeds looking to maintain their form after five wins in seven games.

Liam Bridcutt was absent again with a fractured foot and Gaetano Berardi will return to contention next week after an appearance for Leeds’ Under-23s at Hull City last night.

Derby, who were under the control of Steve McClaren for the first time since his re-appointment as manager on Wednesday, also made a single alteration with Max Lowe replacing Marcus Olsson.

Derby County: Carson, Christie, Keogh, Pearce, Lowe, Butterfield, Johnson, Hughes, Ince, Vydra, Anya.

Subs: Mitchell, Bryson, Russell, Bent, Baird, Wilson, Weimann.

Leeds United: Green, Ayling, Bartley, Jansson, Taylor, Phillips, O’Kane, Hernandez, Mowatt, Sacko, Wood.

Subs: Silvestri, Coyle, Cooper, Vieira, Grimes, Roofe, Antonsson.
