Liverpool
Long-term absentees Joel Matip, Luis Diaz, Arthur and Diogo Jota are still absent for Liverpool, while Naby Keita and James Milner are also out but could return for Saturday's clash with Southampton.
Several fringe players considered for starts regardless, with Caoimhin Kelleher confirmed to be replacing Alisson Becker after starring en route to the crown for the Reds last term, scoring the title-clinching penalty against Chelsea in the final.
Nat Phillips, Kostas Tsimikas, Fabio Carvalho and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain should also be considered for starts, and there could even be spots in the XI for Calvin Ramsay and Stefan Bajcetic, with both players hoping to make their full senior debuts for the Reds.
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Kelleher; Ramsay, Gomez, Phillips, Tsimikas; Elliott, Bajcetic, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Carvalho; Firmino, Nunez
Derby County
As for Derby, centre-back Cashin will take his place on the sidelines as he serves a suspension following his sending off in the FA Cup, but Conor Hourihane was back from a ban of his own to make the bench.
Curtis Davies, James Chester and Jason Knight are injured for the visitors - although the latter is close to returning - while Tom Barkhuizen's hamstring issue will also need assessing after he missed out against Torquay. David McGoldrick was also absent through illness at the weekend and will need a once-over too.
McGoldrick was one of only two players to drop out of the Derby starting XI for the trip to Torquay, and Warne should stick with a similar setup here, with Richard Stearman in line to replace the suspended Cashin
Derby County possible starting lineup:
Wildsmith; Smith, Forsyth, Stearman, Roberts; Mendez-Laing, Hourihane, Bird, Dobbin; Osula, Collins
Prediction: Liverpool 3-0 Derby County
