Derby County Preston North End betting prediction

In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Ipswich Town, by (2‑2). In the last match, they won in an away match against West Bromwich Albion, by (0‑1). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 18 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses at their stadium, with 12 goals scored and 15 conceded. Derby has won 3, tied 4 and lost 3 of the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 4 of the last 5 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 5 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Derby go into this game on the back of a 0-1 win at West Brom: the only goal of the game was scored by Andreas Weimann. The home side usually play in a 3-4-3 formation, with Ben Brereton Díaz, Carlton Morris and Bobby Clark the three players tasked with creating panic in the opposition defence. The midfield is expected to be occupied by Callum Elder, Max Johnston, Lewis Travis and Ebou Adams, with the latter having the role of creating his team's attacking play. Out for this game are Curtis Nelson, Corey Blackett-Taylor, Rhian Brewster, Owen Beck and Sondre Langås, all injured.
