Tom Lawrence set to miss Derby’s clash with Blackburn
Posted Friday, March 06, 2020 by PA
Derby forward Tom Lawrence is a big doubt for Sunday’s home game against Blackburn.
Lawrence was forced out of Thursday night’s FA Cup defeat to Manchester United just before half-time with a knock and was replaced by Morgan Whittaker.
Defender Andre Wisdom is hoping to return after missing the cup tie through illness, while boss Phillip Cocu will consider his options.
Cocu made four changes against United and teenage midfielder Louie Sibley will be hoping to feature again after making his fourth senior start.
Blackburn will again be without defenders Derrick Williams and Darragh Lenihan.
Rovers boss Tony Mowbray confirmed Williams has only just returned to light training after missing the last four games due to a calf injury.
Fellow Republic of Ireland international Lenihan sits out the second game of his two-match ban after receiving his 10th yellow card in the recent draw against Swansea.
Midfield trio Bradley Dack, Lewis Holtby (both knee) and Corry Evans (fractured skull) remain long-term absentees.
