Another set-piece opportunity for Derby as Lee Buchanan is taken down by Nathaniel Chalobah.

Wayne Rooney goes for goal but it deflects off the Watford wall and out for a corner.

Derby win a corner.

Wayne Rooney whips in but Watford centre-back Ben Wilmot effectively marshals Matt Clarke to ensure he can't get on the end of it.

The original cross from Ken Sema is cleared and Kiko Femenia then half-volleys comfortably over for the visitors.

Derby's George Evans goes in hard on Kiko Femenia - too hard, in fact.

It's a Watford free-kick near the byline. It's almost like a corner of sorts for them.

No shots or openings to speak of at the 15 minute mark.

Derby appear to lack firepower throughout their squad while Watford are without the likes of Troy Deeney, Andre Gray and Ismaila Sarr.

Someone will need to take things by the scruff of the neck at some point.

Both sides have matched each other up with a wing-back system - let's hope from a neutral perspective that they don't cancel each other out.

Derby keeper David Marshall rushes out of his goal as Ken Sema is played in over the top, but the Scotland international gets there first and clears.

Watford have their first decent spell of possession, with Tom Cleverley their metronome in midfield.

Vladimir Ivic's side have been touted as one of the league's most exciting sides - their goal record doesn't suggest that yet but they're certainly packed with quality players.

Derby are trying to play off Wayne Rooney, using his hold-up abilities to bring in runners beyond him.

Phillip Cocu's side are certainly playing a bit more expansively than they did at Carrow Road last time out.

We haven't seen anything from Watford yet.

Wayne Rooney's attempted cross is too close to Watford keeper Ben Foster and he catches it with ease.

England's record goalscorer just finding his range.

The hosts win an early free-kick out wide, in a dangerous position.

Wayne Rooney is instantly standing over it.

We know his quality - this could be trouble for Watford.

Here we go then. Eventually anyway, after some players temporarily forget to take a knee in support of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Derby have been disappointing and Watford appear to have played slightly within themselves so far this season.

Who will step up here?

The players are out at Pride Park - Derby out of the regular tunnel and Watford from another corner of the ground.

It's been the norm for a while now in football but we still have no fans in the ground and the social distancing guidelines to follow for the players.

Both BBC Radio Derby and BBC Three Counties Radio are providing full match commentary from Pride Park.

We can't bring it to you online for contractual reasons but it's available on radio if you live in the local areas.

It's four changes for the Hornets, who are without midfielder Etienne Capoue (ankle) and forward Ismaila Sarr, who only returned from international duty with Senegal on Thursday.

Centre-back William Troost-Ekong makes his Watford debut, with Tom Cleverley also among those to come into the side.

Phillip Cocu makes one change from Derby's win at Norwich 13 days ago - Poland winger Kamil Jozwiak misses out and is replaced in the side by Max Bird.

Tom Lawrence is fit enough to make the bench, with former England captain Wayne Rooney set to lead the line again.

Derby: Marshall, Byrne, Evans, Davies, Clarke, Buchanan, Holmes, Knight, Shinnie, Bird, Rooney.

Subs: Roos, Wisdom, Forsyth, Te Weirik, Lawrence, Whittaker, Hector-Ingram.

Vladimir Ivic's Watford have had a decent start after their relegation from the Premier League, but there's a feeling that there's much more to come from a squad mixed with established names and exciting young flair players.

Their four Championship games have featured just three goals - which will surely improve with the likes of Troy Deeney, Glenn Murray, Andre Gray and Ismaila Sarr still in their ranks after the transfer deadline.

The domestic transfer deadline passed at 17:00 BST but there are still deals being confirmed.

In all there have been more than 45 moves across the EFL, with Anthony Knockaert joining Nottingham Forest on loan and Harry Wilson moving to Cardiff for the season.

It's been a quiet one for the sides involved tonight though - Derby have let striker Jack Marriott go out on loan to Sheffield Wednesday, while Watford will be pleased the likes of Ismaila Sarr, Etienne Capoue and Troy Deeney look set to remain at Vicarage Road until at least January.

Despite a gritty victory at much-fancied Norwich before the international break it's been a difficult start to the season for Derby.

This week Rams owner Mel Morris had to deny reports that manager Phillip Cocu could be replaced by captain Wayne Rooney - that would be quite some move!

Home form has been a particular issue for Derby, having lost their past four in the league at Pride Park. That could do with changing tonight.

The first international break of the season is over *hurrah*.

And (in theory) no more transfer activity as the domestic deadline passed earlier this evening *hurrah*.

It's back to the bread and butter and we have live coverage of Derby v Watford in the Championship to ease you all back into it.
