Eustace back for Rams

John Eustace will return from suspension for Derby against Charlton.


The experienced midfielder has sat out the last two matches after accumulating 10 yellow cards this season.


Jamie Ward (hamstring), Simon Dawkins (groin) and Will Hughes are injury concerns for head coach Steve McClaren. All three players missed the midweek defeat at Ipswich.


Hughes was only considered ready for the substitutes' bench in the victory over Nottingham Forest last weekend and the 18-year-old midfielder did not travel with the squad to Portman Road due to a hip flexor injury.


Charlton will add midfielder Davide Petrucci to their squad.


Petrucci has joined on loan from Manchester United until the end of the season to boost their bid to beat the drop.


Boss Jose Riga has also let striker Marcus Tudgay move back to Nottingham Forest and loaned midfielder Danny Hollands to Portsmouth.


Winger Callum Harriott (ankle) will be checked over after missing the 1-0 win at Forest in midweek while defenders Leon Cort and Chris Solly are still out with knee injuries.
