Paul Warne names Derby County team to face Cardiff City as decision made on duo
Paul Warne named an unchanged team as Derby County went in search of a third successive home win in the Championship against Cardiff City this afternoon.
After blitzing past Bristol City in their last game before the international break, Warne keeps faith with the same starting XI that was so impressive against Liam Manning's side.
Deadline day signings Marcus Harness and Nat Phillips, who both signed from Ipswich and Liverpool respectively, come into the squad but are on the bench. Ben Osborn is also among the substitutes.

On-loan Wolves midfielder Tawanda Chirewa, who picked up an injury on international duty, and Tom Barkhuizen, are missing from the 20-man selection.

The midfield trio will consist of Ebou Adams, David Ozoh, and Kenzo Goudmijn. Up front, Jerry Yates will lead the attack and be supported by Nathaniel Mendez-Laing and Kayden Jackson on the flanks.
Derby: Zetterstrom, Nyambe, Nelson, Cashin, Elder; Ozoh, Adams, Goudmijn; Mendez-Laing, Yates, Jackson
