Team news
Craig Bryson missed Derby’s 4-1 home win over Brighton, however he will be able to feature in Saturday’s final.
The win over Brighton was perfect according to McClaren, who may keep faith with the same starting XI, which would see Bryson named as a substitute.
Derby have loaned some good young talent from the Premier League, including the likes of George Thorne, Andre Wisdom and Patrick Bamford.
The latter is the only one expected to miss out, as a role on the bench looks likely, given Chris Martin’s 22 goals this season.
Queens Park Rangers themselves will welcome back Benoit Assou-Ekotto, who missed both semi-final legs with a knee injury.
The Tottenham loanee will come in for Clint Hill, who struggled out of position at left-back against Wigan at Loftus Road.
One or both of Niko Krancjar and Ravel Morrison look set to start, with Redknapp likely to move back to a 4-2-3-1 formation.
That would see Kevin Doyle make way, after being used as a left winger at times in the Wigan win.
Bobby Zamora replaced Doyle, however he is set for another role among the subs, with Charlie Austin the main man through the middle.
Long term absentees Jermaine Jenas, Alejandro Faurlin and Matty Phillips won’t feature for Harry Redknapp’s side.
Probable starting XI’s
Derby (4-5-1): Grant; Wisdom, Buxton, Keogh, Forsyth; Russell, Hendrick, Thorne, Hughes, Ward; Martin
QPR (4-2-3-1): Green; Simpson, Dunne, Onuoha, Assou-Ekotto; Barton, O’Neill; Hoillett, Kranjcar, Morrison; Austin
