Derby County have been looking really weak on the away fields so far this season. They even lost to the newcomer to the Championship Rotherham on the away side before. Also, they conceded two goals against the outsider in the league Millwall and lost to Bolton Wanderers all on the away side before. Despite all of that the team of Frank Lampard is on the fifth place in the English Football League Championship at the moment. In their last three matches Derby County beat Sheffield United with a 2-1 score, drew against Queen`s Park Rangers with a 1-1 score and against Norwich City with the same 1-1 score. In the 1/16-finals fixture of the Carabao Cup they beat Manchester United in a penalty shootout.
In their last five matches between West Bromwich Albion and Derby County at the Hawthorns the hosting side won only two of them. However, the Baggies scored at least once in each of those games. In one of the fixtures they lost the Rams managed to score even two goals. Now considering the recent performances of the Baggies in front of their home crowd and the recent performances of the Rams on the away fields it is likely that the team of Darren Moore will score some goals against Derby County once again. Two of the key strikers for the Throstles Jay Rodriguez and Dwight Gayle have scored fifteen goals already overall this season. Furthermore, such players as Kieran Gibbs, Harvey Barnes and Chris Brunt could also score against any opponent in the Championship. Thereby the Albion should show a very productive performance against the Rams in the upcoming match.
Prediction for the match: West Bromwich Albion to score over 1.5 goals.
