CHRIS Martin will make his full debut for Derby County against Crystal Palace at Pride Park Stadium tonight (7.45pm).

The on-loan striker, who had a spell with Palace last season, replaces Michael Jacobs in the Rams starting line-up as manager Nigel Clough makes three changes to his side following last weekend's 2-1 defeat at Watford.

  1. Chris Martin

Gareth Roberts returns at left-back after serving his three-match ban and centre-half Jake Buxton is fit enough to start following a knee injury.

That allows John Brayford to reverts to right-back, so Ben Davies and Michael Hoganson drop to the bench, having shaken off groin and hip problems respectively.
