Derby County will look to get back to winning ways this weekend after a bitterly disappointing 3-1 defeat to Sheffield United on Boxing Day.

The Rams, after a terrible afternoon at Bramall Lane, are now three games without a win and have now slipped down to sixth position in the Sky Bet Championship table - just two points clear of Birmingham City in seventh.

Things do not get any easier for Frank Lampard's men either - after facing one promotion rival in Sheffield United only a few days ago, they now travel to another promotion rival in Norwich City on Saturday afternoon, who are in sensational form.

Daniel Farke's men will be full of confidence after rescuing a last-gasp draw against Nottingham Forest on Boxing Day, as well putting together an incredible run of form in recent months.

With games coming thick and fast in a hectic Christmas period, here, we take a look at the Derby XI that Lampard should look to field against Norwich this weekend...

Carson has been an ever-present for Lampard this season, and there is no reason whatsoever why he should be dropped this weekend despite conceding three goals at Bramall Lane.

Bogle is improving game by game after nailing down his place in the Derby side, and deserves to keep his place in the side once again this weekend.

With Alex Pearce being named on the bench against the Blades, Richard Keogh will have to up his game as the former looks to make a long-awaited return.

Tomori has been superb for the Rams since his loan arrival from Chelsea in the summer and has forged a good understanding with Keogh at the back this term.

The Rams have been hit with a serious injury crisis at left-back with the recent injury to Scott Malone.

Andre Wisdom filled in against Sheffield United and he'll look to do so once again this weekend, with Craig Forsyth another absentee.

Huddlestone has been a solid figure in midfield for Derby in recent weeks, and will be a huge player in the key midfield battle this weekend.

Bryson is another player who will have to be at the top of his game, with George Evans pushing for a start week by week.

Florian Jozefzoon just wasn't at the races against United and Martyn Waghorn should look to replace the Dutchman this weekend.

After netting the Rams' equaliser against Bristol City a week ago, he'll be looking to get back on the scoresheet this weekend.

The Rams will be relying on Mount to turn their fortunes around this weekend.

Wilson produced yet another piece of magic with another sublime free-kick against United on Boxing Day. He's so important in Derby's bid for promotion.

Completing the team is Jack Marriott. The former Peterborough man offers so much movement and pace up top, and he can be a real handful for Norwich's defence this weekend.
