Derby boss Paul Warne says facing Wanderers will be “a different level” to their recent tests in League One.

The Rams have won five of their last six matches as they aim to bounce back from last season’s relegation from the Championship.

The only game they failed to win during that run was against the Whites following a goalless draw at the University of Bolton Stadium last month.

Warne says his side have had it all their own way in recent weeks but expects things to be different against Ian Evatt’s men.

The Derby boss is hopeful that the home crowd can give his side a boost in an important fixture in the promotion battle.

“They are all cup finals, you've just got to earn the right to play,” he told the club’s website.

“There's going to be a phenomenal amount of people that are going to turn up to watch our great team play and for that I'm grateful.

“It will have a bit of a different feel because we've had it all our way in recent weeks in terms of our performance levels and attempts on goal.

“This is a different level, really. It will have a big game feel in that we just need to keep winning. It doesn't matter who it is, we'll set out to absolutely go for it from the outset.”

Tony Springett could make his debut against Wanderers after joining on loan from Championship side Norwich City.

The 20-year-old winger made his senior debut in a Premier League fixture against West Ham at the back end of last season.

Warne added: “I've seen him play live a couple of times, watched a lot of him and spoke to Norwich City on numerous occasions over the last few weeks trying to help them to convince him to choose us.

“He suits us for many reasons. He's a really good kid, wants to get better, is keen to play, trains really hard and he's top of all the training data, which I really like.

“He gives us a bit of balance on the left side so he can play wide of a three on the left or right, he can play as a number 10, in midfield or he can play as a left-back. Anyone that can play multiple positions brings a lot to us.

“What I didn't want to do is get exactly the same player to what we have already because in certain games you need a certain sort of player, and the more different options we can have as a coaching staff, the better. I think he will play a massive part going forward.”
