2015 started with Brighton and Hove Albion fans hoping they'd avoid relegation. They end the year dreaming of getting into the Premier League. The league leaders still haven't lost a Championship game all season and avoiding defeat here will take that run to 20 games. It's not getting any easier for the south coast side who last weekend went 2-0 down at home to Charlton inside five minutes and still trailed with seven minutes to go before sensationally winning 3-2. Their success this season has been mainly based on their home form with eight wins and two draws. On the road they have three wins and six draws and have drawn their last three games and five of the last six. Derby County are also no strangers to drawing matches with seven in their 19 games. Scoring against them isn't easy at present with five clean sheets in the last six league games. That includes three straight clean sheets at home and five in the last six games. Derby have only lost one of their last 14 league games so we have two teams here who are both difficult to beat. A draw looks the most likely result here then.
