These are two teams in the opposite shapes. Derby have dropped from 4th in November to 17th place, winning just once of last eleven games (losing eight of them). Adding on that a shocking defeat at Crawley in FA Cup, selling Kris Commons to Celtic and the fact they’re without a win at home in five games, their confidence cannot be too high. It seems Nigel Clough will face the axe very soon.
I’m far from being a fan of SGE but since he became a manager at Walkers, Leicester moved up from 15th position to 8th and are in a play-off race. They’re undefeated in last six games (five wins) and have three victories in a row (scoring nine in those). They got a decent quality signing Yakubu and Soll Bamba (scored three goals as defender since the arrival).
The Foxes are not scoring on the road that much as at home, but I think they’ll be anyway too much for uninspired Rams and will continue a great run. 0-2 correct score.
