The game will be played at Pride Park Stadium and the hosts begin this round of fixtures bottom of the table on 4 points while the visitors are in fourth place with 41 points to their name.

Derby County come into the match on the back of a 1-0 home win over Blackpool in the Championship. The only goal of the game came in the 51st minute and that was the first victory for Derby County in their last 4 Championship matches.

They lost 2-1 at home against Queens Park Rangers and 1-0 at Bristol City plus picked up a point in a 0-0 draw at Fulham, which was a good result.

However, they have won only 2 of their last 6 home league fixtures. Derby County have scored in each of their last 5 home Championship games but have conceded 2 goals in each of their last 4.

Trends show Derby County have achieved just 6 wins in their 39 most recent games in all competitions, which is a poor return.

West Bromwich Albion make the trip to Pride Park having picked up a point in a 0-0 draw at Barnsley last time out.

That result means West Bromwich Albion are undefeated in their last 5 Championship matches having beat Reading at home and Coventry City away in recent league games. West Bromwich Albion also picked up a point in draws at Blackpool and at home against Nottingham Forest.

Away form shows West Bromwich Albion are undefeated in their last 3 on the road in the Championship. However, in their 7 most recent away matches of all competitions, West Bromwich have achieved just 1 win.

They have won 1 and drawn 2 of those 3 matches and scoring goals has proved a bit of problem in recent times. West Bromwich Albion have failed to score a goal in 4 of their last 5 away league fixtures and will hope to improve on that record in this game.

Trends show West Bromwich Albion's latest meetings with Derby County have been low-scoring with under 2.5 goals in all of their last 3 encounters in the league.

Looking ahead to the team news and the Derby County have had issues with COVID-19, meaning Festy Ebosele, Colin Kazim-Richards, Ravel Morrison, Kelle Roos, and Nathan Byrne may all be unavailable. Sam Baldock, Krystian Bielik, and Lee Buchanan are doubts due to injury while Max Bird is suffering from a groin problem.

West Bromwich Albion have doubts over the fitness of Kenneth Zohore, Robert Snodgrass, Matthew Phillips, and Kean Bryan. Dara O'Shea misses out due to a broken ankle.

Derby County are really up against it both on and off the pitch. They face the possibility of several players being unavailable for this game and West Bromwich Albion should be able to take full advantage to claim 3 points and keep a clean sheet in the process.
