Team News: Richard Keogh returns for Derby County against Middlesbrough

Derby County captain Richard Keogh returns to the starting XI for his side's trip to Middlesbrough in the Championship.

Derby County captain Richard Keogh has returned to the starting lineup for this afternoon's clash with promotion rivals Middlesbrough at the Riverside Stadium.

Middlesbrough have also made one change after thrashing Millwall 5-1 last time out, with Ben Gibson earning a recall at the expense of Kenneth Omeruo.

Derby currently have a one-point lead at the top of the table, while Boro start the day two points behind the leaders.

Middlesbrough: Konstantopoulos; Nsue, Gibson, Ayala, Friend; Reach, Clayton, Leadbitter, Adomah; Vossen, Bamford
Subs: Mejias, Husband, Whitehead, Kike, Omeruo, Veljkovic, Wildschut
