Derby County vs Preston North End Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship

Prediction published on 23/12/2020, 16:34 by Steve Ashfield | Modified on 23/12/2020 at 17:34 in Championship Predictions

Derby County look like appointing Wayne Rooney as their full-time boss. They are still in the relegation zone and try to escape that with a win at home to 15th placed Preston North End. County are only in the relegation zone on goal difference but would be out the bottom three if winning their game in hand on Nottingham Forest. They have earned ten points from their last six league games with two wins and four draws. A big improvement on the four straight losses with no goals conceded before this unbeaten run. The weekend saw them beat promotion chasers Swansea City 2-0 at home and their fourth clean sheet in a row. Despite that win, they still have the worst home record in the Championship. Just seven points from ten sounds bad and it is. However, six of those points have come in the last four played at Pride Park. Three successive home draws was followed by that elusive first win against Swansea City. Goals are sparce up front too though with only five in the last ten league fixtures. Nine of their ten home league games this season have had under 2.5 goals scored in them and it’s 16 out of 19, home and away.

Preston North End are having an inconsistent season but only seven points behind the final promotion play-off position. A couple of wins in this league changes everything. Their most recent game saw them beat Bristol City 1-0 at home. That was a welcome victory after only one win in the last four. This season began with them losing game after game at home but winning 13 points from five on the road. While three out of five at home have been won, their away form is now struggling. with four defeats in five. The other was a pretty good result though, winning 3-2 at Bournemouth. They have conceded 13 goals in their last five away league matches with both teams scoring in four of them. Only one of their ten away league fixtures has seen under 2.5 goals scored but that run may end in this game. A bet on under 2.5 goals is the tip with Derby's form improving but still not scoring many.

Our Derby County vs Preston North End Prediction

Derby are gradually rescuing their season with a six game unbeaten run. They still struggle for goals but have kept four clean sheets. Preston have had good and bad away form this season and have lost four of the last five. They did beat Bristol City in their last fixture though. A bet on under 2.5 goals being scored is the bet to make.
