Malcolm Christie may make a remarkable recovery from his hamstring problem to play for the Rams against Chelsea tomorrow (Sat 30
th March).
The injury kept Christie out of Tuesdays U21 England friendly International against Italy but has responded well to treatment this week. If Christie doesn't make the starting line-up after a late fitness test tomorrow his place in the team is likely to go to inform Branko Strupar, who is stated to be approaching full match fitness.
Another injury worry is defender Chris Riggott. He completed the match against Everton last week with a worrying knock to his leg but remains confident that he too will be able to play some part in tomorrows game.
