Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Derby County in 16th and Millwall in 13th place.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Derby County and Millwall.
Derby County form and stats
5-5-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Championship numbers at home for Derby County so far this season. Derby County have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.
Derby County drew their last game, also a home match. Sheffield Wednesday (placed 8th) was the opponent, 1-1 the score. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Blackburn Rovers (0-1).
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Derby County have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found eleven matches with the results: Won 2 Drawn 7 Lost 2.
The Derby County fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 11 matches. From these home matches, Derby County have conceded only 8 goals.
Millwall form and stats
There's been little loot from Millwall's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 11 away games in the Championship. Millwall only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 5 draws.
Millwall play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 2-1 victory visiting Bristol City (placed 4th). Ahead of that game was the 2-2 draw at home against Nottingham Forest.
