Derby are clear favourites to win the match, which will continue our poor run of form, or so the experts say.
As you all know, thanks to Popey lads horrendous form with the matchday Fred (pmsl) we are yet to win a league game from our opening four matches and, after Tuesday's thrashing by Wolves, we are also out of the League Cup.
Wayne's derby aren't exactly pulling up trees (pardon the pun) this year, but they appear to be facing their set of circumstances better than we are at present. Rooney's little lambs have five points on the board with a win and two draws to their name. The match will be tight and the fans will no doubt be as hateful towards each other as ever, and good on em.
We can expect to see fiery tempers, big tackles and plenty of handbags from the whistle. I am hoping Yates and Colback are dropped for this one, because either or both would probably pick up a red. I am also hoping they are dropped because they're utter shit. Quality will be lacking, theres no doubt about it, but Derby do at least try and play attacking football. Derby have seen at least one team blank in two of their last three matches whilst our previous two matches have ended with someone failing to find the net. With neither team particularly in hot form in the attacking sense and with points in high demand, it wouldn't be a surprise if both sides opt for the quadruple pivot. If Mighten plays, I predict he will spend more time on the floor than he does on the ball.
Last 5
Derby were the team everyone expected to be relegated this season but we are defying the odds and doing our very best to keep them up by sacrificing ourselves. In fairness they've shown a lot of fight, unlike us.
Hughtons position is surely in the balance, and a loss here should see him ejected out of the hot seat and all his belongings thrown into the revolving incinerator. Derby have a few injuries amongst their squad and we are struggling to put out 11 players that know how to win a game of football.
I am not going to predict the team, because Hughton will no doubt pick the same shit as always.
I will nail my colours to the mast though and I predict a 1-1 draw in a borefest of a game.
The weather will be grand. If you're going, behave yourselves.
The End
