Derby midfielder George Thorne will return to contention for the home game against Leeds.
Thorne missed the recent defeat at Sheffield Wednesday due to a back problem, but has returned to training and will be included in the squad.
Boss Gary Rowett has no new injury or suspension problems, while goalkeeper Jonathan Mitchell is back in training after recovering from a broken finger.
Striker Sam Winnall (knee) and midfielder Jamie Hanson (groin) both remain sidelined.
Leeds will be boosted by the return of three players as Samuel Saiz, Gaetano Berardi and Liam Cooper have all served their suspensions.
Midfielder Saiz has completed a six-game ban, while defenders Berardi and Cooper have missed the last two and four matches respectively.
January signing Tyler Roberts has yet to make his debut for the club and remains sidelined due to a shin injury.
Luke Ayling is still recovering from ankle surgery and fellow defender Conor Shaughnessy is out with a similar problem.
1 - 2 Leeds win.
MOT.

2-1 to Leeds, an 18 of wiedwald lonergan berardi debock jansson Cooper Pennington forshaw okane Phillips Vieira Dallas alioski hernandez Saiz lasogga ekuban roofe
That's my estimate anyway
Take Wiedwald out, play Lonergan, Berardi, Jansson, Pennington, Forshaw, Vieira, Alioski, Hernandez, Saiz, Lassoga, Roofe.
Start that 11 and we give 'em real fight.
Somebody wanted Lonergan in the transfer window but nobody wanted Wieldwald.
It was Sunderland - tried to buy 11 goalies...![]()
I'll bet on this being the starting 11:
Wiedwald, Berardi, Pennington, Janssen, De Bock, Dallas, Forshaw, Phillips, Hernandez, Saiz, Lassoga
with Lonergan, OKane, Roofe, Anita, Sacko on the bench
So no Vieira or Alioski
