Delap, who made over 100 appearances for the Rams over a decade ago, said: "When the draw came out I started getting a few texts from friends.

"My wife's family are all Derby fans so it could be interesting. I'm looking forward to it, but we know it's going to be a tough game."

"We would love a repeat of last year," Delap told BBC Radio Stoke.
