TEAM NEWS
United have a lengthy injury list with Josh Murphy the latest doubt. The winger felt his calf tighten in the game at Northampton and wasn't risked against Cambridge on Boxing Day. Like striker Billy Bodin the problem is not thought to be long-term but does mean that United have a full outfield team unavailable through injury: Sam Long, Stephan Negru, James Golding, Greg Leigh, George Franklin, Josh Johnson, Josh Murphy, Marcus Browne, Kyle Edwards and Billy Bodin.

United's strength in depth was underlined with Tyler Goodrham stepping in to replace Murphy and score the opening goal against Boxing Day

"That was a big win" Tyler told iFollow. "We were gutted like the fans to lose the way we did in the last minute at Northampton but to be on the other side of that against Cambridge was an amazing feeling. We started too slowly on Boxing Day, we know that, so we have to try and play 90 minutes against Derby the way we did in the second half against Cambridge.

"We are more than capable of doing that and we have been good at home. It's great playing in front of the big crowds and hopefully they get right behind us and we can make it two good home wins in a row."

THE OPPOSITION
A 1-0 win at Wigan Athletic on Boxing Day made it seven wins and one draw in their last eight league outings for Paul Warne's side

"We'll watch Oxford's games through and see how we can stop them, first and foremost because they are a good team, and work out how we think we can beat them too" Warne told Derby's official site. "I said to the lads before the Wigan game: 'we haven't turned up for a point, we've come for a win' and that's the same mentality we will have against Oxford."

Midfielder Korey Smith and strikers Martyn Waghorn and Conor Washington are out through injury.
