Middlesbrough midfielder Josh McEachran will be assessed ahead of their trip to Derby.
The Chelsea loanee suffered an ankle injury during the 1-0 win over Blackburn and missed Saturday's 4-2 victory against Blackpool.
George Friend (hamstring) and Emmanuel Ledesma (knee) missed out at the Riverside although Stuart Parnaby, who had a medial ligament injury which the club initially feared may require surgery, came through 69 minutes.
But Seb Hines and Faris Haroun both failed late fitness tests and should be assessed again before kick-off.
Midfielders Julio Arca (toe) and Muzzy Carayol and striker Curtis Main (both knee) are still sidelined.
Boro are just one point off the automatic promotion places and only six points behind leaders Cardiff.
