Derby vs Preston Match Preview

Derby lost 1-0 at local rivals Nottingham Forest before the international break to continue their win one, lose one record of recent times. County sit in 16th place with a mixed record of five victories, five defeats and six draws.

At Pride Park, the Rams have won each of their last four though three of these victories came against a team in the current bottom five. Tom Lawrence has three goals from his last three appearances in front of his own fans.

Preston went into the two-week interval on the back of a third successive victory as they saw off Huddersfield 3-1. It means it is ten points from their last four for North-End who sit second and are the top-scorers in the division with 31 goals.

Away from Deepdale, North-End need to pick up if they want to be promoted having won just two of seven on their travels. Their road games have seen a combined total of just 13 goals which is the lowest in the division.

Bookmakers are struggling to split the pair here and while we think Preston are the stronger team just two wins on the road is enough to put us of backing them especially against a Derby side who tend to be better at home.

The Lancashire outfit do not score more goals on the road but as they are the highest scorers in the division this feels like something of an oddity. It feels like only a matter of time before they start scoring on the road so backing them to go over 1.5 goals is the main bet here while them to go over 2.5 goals is also worth a small bet.
