Matchday 41 in the English Championship sees 21st-place Derby County face off against league-leaders Burnley on Tuesday. The surging Rams are involved in a relegation scrap while the Clarets are seeking to win the title. Read on for our match prediction!
Derby head back to Pride Park following a 1-0 away loss to Swansea over the weekend. The defeat snapped a four-match winning streak for John Eustace’s side as they attempt a late-season escape act to avoid relegation to League One.
The Rams currently find themselves just outside the bottom three owing to their superior goal differential as they are even on points with 22nd-place Cardiff.
Derby are on a fantastic run on their home patch, winning their last three on the trot. They’ve seen 30 of their 41 points come at this ground.
Burnley have taken advantage of the recent slip ups from their title-challenging rivals and have leapfrogged both Sheffield United and Leeds into first place. The visitors are on a three-match winning streak and have extended their Championship unbeaten run to 27 games (seven across all competitions).
They conceded a goal in their recent 2-1 away win over Coventry, something that has been a rare occurrence for Scott Parker’s side. In their 40 league fixtures, the Clarets have allowed only 12 goals.
