Sunderland vs Derby County Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Ian John in Championship Predictions
Sunderland defend their perfect home record in the Championship on Tuesday night as they host Derby County in what should be an entertaining clash at the Stadium of Light. The Black Cats sit second in the table after the weekend’s result, while the Rams solid home form sees them lying 13th in the table. Let’s check out our considered prediction for this match.
Occasionally in a game, the data is so overwhelming that it points to one result and that is the case here. Sunderland have played three games at home this season, won them all, scoring six goals in the process and not conceding a single goal in reply.
They did lose at the weekend, a 2-1 defeat away to Watford, their second loss of the season away from home, but despite that, their excellent start of five wins in seven means that they trail leaders West Brom by just a point.
Derby’s form away from home is equally emphatic, but not in a positive way. The Rams have lost all of their away games this season, losing to Blackburn (4-2), Watford (2-1), Barrow (in the Carabao cup 3-2 on penalties after a 0-0 draw) and Sheffield United (1-0).
They were also unfortunate to lose at home for the first time this past weekend, going down to a 3-2 defeat to Norwich at Pride Park. However Norwich’s first goal of that game should not have stood. It will be interesting to see how the Rams bounce back from that injustice here.

Our Sunderland vs Derby County Prediction
Our prediction for Sunderland vs. Derby County in the Championship is: Sunderland to win.
As predictions go, this is one of the easiest ones to pick so far this season. Sunderland's excellent home form this season contrasts sharply with Derby's miserable form away from home. Then supporting that is Sunderland's excellent historical record against Derby, with one loss in 17 and no Derby win away to Sunderland in 34 years. Last time the teams met, Sunderland were 4-1 winners and it may be a similar scoreline in this game too.
