Derby County vs Burnley Predictions & Live Stream - Visitors to maintain Championship lead
- Burnley aiming to strengthen their lead atop the Championship at Derby County.
- Derby have improved lately, escaping the relegation zone with strong home performances.
- Burnley remain unbeaten in six matches, boasting the best defense and solid attack.
Derby County vs Burnley
Burnley will aim to strengthen their lead at the top of the English Championship when they travel to Pride Park for a midweek fixture against Derby County.
The hosts are showing signs of resurgence lately and playing themselves away from relegation trouble. However, they face the best defence in the league and with the visitors also showing good attacking quality lately, an away win is on the cards here.
Derby County Form
Things are beginning to look up for Derby County, who have hit some good form in the last few weeks. They have won four of the last five Championship matches but were beaten 1-0 at Swansea City in their previous Championship fixture.
Despite that defeat in Wales, Derby remain just outside the relegation zone, albeit on goal difference. Given their still precarious position in the table, manager John Eustace will be keen to get things back on track, starting on Tuesday.
The good news for Derby County is that they have done their best work at home lately, winning their last three matches at Pride Park. However, prior to that run, the Rams had been winless in six straight matches in front of their fans, failing to score a single goal in that run and losing to top sides like Leeds and Sheffield United.
Burnley Form
Burnley have fully taken advantage of recent slips from Leeds United and Sheffield United and are now one point clear at the top of the table. They are unbeaten in their last six Championship matches, picking up five wins in that run.
The Clarets showed some character last weekend as they fought back from a goal down to claim a 2-1 victory at Coventry City thanks to a Jaidon Anthony brace. Despite conceding on Saturday, Scott Parker's team still boast the best defence in the Championship, keeping 28 clean sheets so far.
Burnley may be known for their defence but still have attacking quality, with Anthony scoring three goals in the last two away matches while Zian Flemming has nine goals this season. The visitors have scored first in five of their last seven Championship matches.
Head to Head
Burnley have a great record against Derby County and are unbeaten in the last 13 matches, claiming nine wins in that run. The visitors were held to a 0-0 home draw in the reverse fixture back in December.
Verdict
Derby County may be showing signs of resurgence lately but still struggle against the big sides having lost at home to Leeds United and Sheffield United without scoring a goal. Burnley have won their last three away matches and should have the upper hand here.
Burnley's defensive quality should be evident at Pride Park and they will be targeting a shutout having kept clean sheets in seven of their last nine away matches. Their attacking quality should also shine through and are expected to maintain their trend of scoring first.
