We go into tonight’s trip to Derby knowing that a third successive win would take us joint third in the Championship table.
Preston’s win against Fulham last night saw us drop one place to seventh but three points at Pride Park, where we haven’t won for 13 years, would put us firmly back in the play-off places.
Liam Palmer is available after suspension while Keiren Westwood will be assessed before kick off following his shoulder problem and Fernando Forestieri continues to be sidelined with a knee injury.
There will be a minute’s applause before kick off for former Derby boss – and Wednesday fan – Jim Smith who has passed away, aged 79.
