A struggling Derby County may provide a pathway to winning points when Oxford United visits them in a matchday 32 meeting in the EFL Championship. This match at the Pride Park Stadium between the 22nd-placed Rams and the 17th-placed U’s on Tuesday comes with our prediction of a point for the away side.
Derby have 28 points from 31 matches and one point from safety, having played a game more than the teams around them. Oxford’s 37 points from 31 matches give them a nine-point buffer to their hosts in the last relegation spot.
The hosts are searching for a permanent manager after Paul Warne has been axed, but things on the field are grim. Eight defeats and a draw in all competitions since their last win on Boxing Day don’t give confidence of avoiding the drop.
The challenge is to improve at this venue, where they lost four home games in a row, each without scoring. Oxford lost 1-0 away at Burnley last week, but that was their first defeat in ten matches. In this sequence, they won five and drew four games.
That defeat was also their first in five away league games, where a win and three draws in that sequence make Oxford a difficult side to beat on current form.

Our Derby County vs Oxford United Prediction
