Competition: Championship
Market: Derby to win against Birmingham
Odds: 8/11 @ Bet 365
Derby County host Birmingham City at the iPro Stadium in a Midlands derby, albeit not as ferocious as Derby vs Nottingham Forest or Birmingham City vs Aston Villa.
Derby are favourites with Birmingham having been struggling for form of late, and could go within one point of the playoffs if they see past the Blues today.
Steve McClaren’s Rams are eighth in the Championship table with 36 points from 22 games, boasting five wins from their last six. Derby have been in fantastic form on home soil too, coming off the back of four consecutive victories, and will fancy their chances of a win given Birmingham can’t arrest the slide.
As for the visitors, City have suffered half of their six defeats this season in the last four games, and have taken a big hit to their playoff hopes. Birmingham are 11th with 34 points, and can’t build up any momentum on the road – winning just one away game in seven.
With an in-form Derby strong at home while a struggling Birmingham keeping dropping points away, Bet 365 are giving odds of 8/11 for the Rams to pick up all three points.
