Venue: Pride Park Stadium (33597 seats)

Season ticket holders at Pride Park Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Derby County languishing in the 18th position so far. The guesting Birmingham City will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Derby County form and stats

When playing at home in the Championship, Derby County have managed 0 wins, 3 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 4 games. Derby County have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

The home team returns to Pride Park Stadium after sharing the points with Leeds United (placed 1st) on their last time out; the Championship game ended 1-1. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Cardiff City that ended 1-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Derby County have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 14 games) they have won 6 times, drawn 5 and lost 3.

Derby County are traveling soon after this match as the Championship match at Barnsley awaits in four days.

Derby County have scored 3 league goals here from 4 matches, not a lot. Derby County's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 4 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Birmingham City form and stats

2-0-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Birmingham City in their Championship matches away.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Championship home defeat versus Preston North End with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Charlton Athletic.

Birmingham City are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 4 draws and 12 defeats. From a total of 18 matches.

The schedule is very tough for Birmingham City now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Championship game at Wigan Athletic is waiting in only three days.

Goals are few and far between in Birmingham City's away league games. Only 2 goals from 4 travels. In the opposite end, Birmingham City have conceded 6 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head
