Derby County v Luton injury latest as key man set for scan
Derby County head to Luton Town on Friday night buoyed by their their biggest win of the season as they crushed Portsmouth 4-0 at the weekend.
The Rams were irresistible in the first half against a shellshocked Pompey who had no answer to a blistering 45 minutes which saw Warne's side race into a three-goal lead.
Kane Wilson set the ball rolling with a first-time finish from Nathaniel Mendez-Laing's cross before Eiran Cashin doubled the lead with a header.

Ebou Adams then got in on the act as he converted Craig Forsyth's cross with the aid of a deflection with Marlon Pack's own goal wrapping up the win in the second half.
It was a huge win that lifted Derby up to 14th in the table, but it did come at a cost with influential defender Cashin the latest player to be added to the treatment table.
Ahead of the Rams' trip to Luton on Friday, here is the latest from the treatment table as Warne's side prepare for Kenilworth Road.
Eiran Cashin
In what is a considerable blow to Derby, given how well he has been playing, Eiran Cashin looks set to miss the Christmas period of fixtures.
The defender had to be replaced in the second half of the crushing 4-0 win over Portsmouth on Friday with a hamstring problem. He will be sent for a scan this week to determine the severity of the injury, but Paul Warne anticipates he will be out for the festive fixtures at least.
"I don't know how severe it is," he said. "Nobody wants me to say it, but he is obviously going to be out for a period of time unless he has the body of Superman.
"We will have to wait it for it to calm down which will be Monday or Tuesday time and then we will see where we are at.
"My most honest verdict is that he will be missing for the Christmas period at least. I was walking and talking with him while we were applauding the fans after the game.
"I thought he pulled his hammy at Burnley, but then it came across that he was joking or something crazy and then last night, I was like 'oh no'. It was like tempting fate even though I know it doesn't exist.
"He knows he has done something. It's not like a cramp. You don't come off especially with how well he was playing. If I had to pick the man of the match after 65 minutes, it would have been him."
David Ozoh
The on-loan Crystal Palace midfielder has been out of action since picking up an injury against Cardiff. Initially he had overcome the hamstring problem which saw him taken off in the second half, but in his final session before he was due to return, he damaged his quad muscle.
Ozoh is still not back in full training because he has an awarness of his injury. Paul Warne said after the Leeds game at the weekend that even if it's just 10 per cent, they cannot risk pushing him back quickly. Warne admitted it could be weeks or it could be sooner, depending on how Ozoh heals. No timescale has been put on his return.
Ryan Nyambe
Nyambe was ruled out for up to six months because of a knee injury he sustained against Millwall earlier in the season. The former Blackburn defender has damaged his posterior ligament. While he will not have to undergo an operation, he will be out of action until next year.
Confirming the blow, Warne said: "He's done his PCL (posterior ligament), and his recovery is four to six months. I don't think he will need surgery, so it doesn't affect the reoccurrence of injury.
"That is good, but obviously, it's heartbreaking. I love the kid. I know everybody loves their players, and the fans will know I do, but he is some kid.
"He just wants to play and wants to do well. The first thing he did was send me a text to say I feel like I've let you down. And I was like, what? It's a massive blow from a personal point of view, but from a player point of view, I think he's been excellent."
