In what is the biggest game of the whole Championship season, Derby County host Sheffield Wednesday in a match that will see either one team stay up or both head into League One next season.

A struggle was predicted for Wednesday from the start due to their 12-point deduction - which was reduced to six eventually - and after going through three different permanent managers this season they find themselves in the drop zone with one game to play.

As for the Rams though, they would have been expected to move upwards from their mid-table finish last season but it's been anything but simply for them, with Wayne Rooney trying to clean up the mess that Phillip Cocu left behind.

There's been some promising moments, however Rooney has failed to arrest the slide of Derby and they need a win to secure their Championship status for next season.

A draw may not be enough as if that happened and Rotherham were to pick up a win away at Cardiff City, then the Millers would survive over the two teams that clash in Derbyshire today.

 

 

 

 

Rooney has opted to make just one change to the Derby starting line-up and that's to bring in Patrick Roberts instead of Kamil Jozwiak, and there's a surprise return to the bench for Curtis Davies after he suffered a nasty achilles injury back in December.
