Derby travel to Tyneside looking for a Premiership double - Newcastle being the only side they have beaten this year. Derby, at the bottom of the league, take on Newcastle who have won 2 in a row.
Suspensions and Injuries
Steven Taylor returns to the Newcastle United squad, but Derby's Matt Oakley is a doubt. A groin injury looks set to rule midfielder David Jones out of the clash, and long-term absentee Andy Todd (back) will again be missing.
