Predictions & Tips
Form Guide
Derby
WLWWL
Derby had been in excellent form prior to Friday, winning four of their last six games in the English second division. John Eustace's side pushed Coventry hard in a classic fixture, scoring twice through Ben Brereton Diaz before ultimately being undone by a late winner from Jack Rudoni which the home side felt was unfairly awarded. They sit eighth in the table, three points off the play-offs and with a desire to build a late charge into the top six to stand a chance for top-flight promotion.
Stoke
LDWLW
Stoke City arrive this fixture with renewed confidence. Mark Robins' side put together a fine showing that saw them take a 2-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday on Good Friday. The perfect response to the defeat they suffered on the road against Preston just before the international break. A major concern for the side is their form while playing away from home. The side has averaged just 0.85 goals per game on the road this season and have failed to score in six of their last eleven away fixtures. That disturbing record makes Pride Park trip a demanding assignment.
Prediction
Derby's home advantage and the desire to respond after Friday's controversial defeat tips this one in their favour.
