Derby goalkeeper Roy Carroll is fit to face Middlesbrough in Saturday's Premier League showdown at the Riverside Stadium.Carroll sustained a slight groin problem in last Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Manchester United at Pride Park, but has come through training this week.

Defender Alan Stubbs is again sidelined with a calf injury, whilst midfielder Stephen Pearson is unlikely to figure due to an ongoing hernia problem.

Giles Barnes, Claude Davis, Tyrone Mears and on-loan Danny Mills remain on the long-term injured list.

Rams (from): Carroll, Edworthy, McEveley, Leacock, Jones, Stubbs, Villa, Earnshaw, Miller, Lewis, Todd, Sterjovski, Moore, Robert, Savage, Ghaly, Beardsley, Price.
