Liam Cooper was in action for the Under 23 side this week so he could feature here. Stuart Dallas and Gaetano Berardi both miss out through injury for Leeds while Kalvin Phillips is suspended.
Derby County on the other hand, have a full squad available for the trip to Elland Road - a big positive for Lampard.
Preview
Leeds are experiencing a mid-season wobble and it's not the first time that that's been the case. This game certainly doesn't signify things getting any easier either.
The hosts have now lost three consecutive games after their FA Cup defeat against QPR. Before that losing streak began they rescued 3-2 wins in unconvincing performances against Aston Villa and Blackburn.
Getty ImagesAfter 14 seasons away from the top-flight, Leeds will be desperate for promotion. Marcelo Bielsa has had a big impact on their style but the high intensity approach could be difficult to maintain across a guelling campaign and some dips in form are only natural.
Derby are going through a rough patch of form themselves, winning just one of their last five league games. However, spirited fightbacks against Norwich and Southampton in recent weeks should see confidence growing amongst Lampard's squad.
Tips and predictions
Late goals have been flying in for both teams as of late with Leeds scoring eight of their last nine league goals in the second half.
Derby have followed a similar trend scoring five of their last six goals after half time. Therefore, both teams to score in the second half looks a tasty selection at 2/1 (3.00) with bet365.
The best bet though, is backing Derby to win at an industry-best 7/2(4.50) with bet365. This definitely appears a value selection given some of Leeds' recent performances and they appear very short from a price perspective.
The Yorkshire club look laboured and tired after a hectic festive schedule and Derby will be buoyed by coming back from two goals down to draw with Southampton in the FA Cup. A price of 7/2 (4.50) for an away win looks too appealing to pass up.
