After relative scares in the first round, Barrow and Derby County will be facing off in the League Cup second round. Here’s our preview and prediction of the second match in history between the two sides.
Hosts Barrow will be seeking revenge after their first-round elimination at the hands of Derby in 2020. The loss on penalties was inflicted away at Pride Park and here they’ll be targeting a home win.
The League Two side scored two quick goals in their 3-2 win against Port Vale in the last round, averting what seemed like an imminent home loss. It has been pretty solid for Barrow this season, winning three of their four games thus far.
Ahead of this game, they registered their biggest win, beating Port Vale 4-0, this time in a league encounter.
Playing two leagues above Barrow, Derby County are tipped the favorites going into this clash. They’ve already seen off one League Two side in this competition and will be baying for more blood here.
The Rams were forced to come from a goal down to beat Chesterfield in the first round. They would go on to register a gritty 1-0 win against Middlesbrough. Derby’s luck, however, ran out in their latest outing, as they fell 2-1 away to Watford.
Their two defeats so far this season have come away from home, and Derby will be keen to avoid a third as they play a second straight away game. Paul Warne’s side aren’t the strongest travelers; they bring just one away win in their last six matches on the road.

Our Barrow vs Derby County Prediction
Coming from a 4-0 win against Port Vale, and generally in good scoring form, the hosts will be full of confidence in this game. They’ve also scored in each of their last five home matches and hosting this game, they will want to engineer an upset.
Derby County are also on a good scoring run as they head to Cumbria. Playing in a higher league, they will have more quality for this opponent and should get to the score sheet. Our prediction for Barrow v Derby County is for both teams to score.
2 Goals Ahead Early Payout
More than 80 leagues and competitions are available on this football promotion from bet365. If the team that you have backed takes a two-goal lead at any point in the game, then your bet is a winner. This counts on both single bets and on multiple placed on the full time market, though of course on a multiple it is only the game in question that is marked as a winner, all the other selections still have to win as well.
A bet placed on any enhanced price is not valid for this offer, nor any bet that is cashed out. If you have partially chased out, the remainder of the stake is paid out as a winner. If your acca selection would have been a loser but for this offer then you will not gain any acca boost winnings. So for example, your team goes 2-0 up so you are paid out as a winner but the end result is 2-2, your bet is still a winner if all the other selections win but you do not gain any acca boost.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
