Derby County Team News
Derby County was relegated from Championship last season and this season in League One started solidly for them. After 22 rounds they are 7th on the table with 35 points and nine wins and they are only below the top 6 zone because of the goal difference but they have a game in hand.
Derby is in great form in the last two months. They suffered only one defeat in the last 13 games and that defeat was against Liverpool in a Carabao Cup game after penalties. The only problem is that they have seven draws in that run.
In the last nine games in League One, they have three wins and six draws. Impressive thing is that they have five clean sheets in those games. Derby County has the best defence in the league with only 17 goals conceded and they have 10 clean sheets (only Sheffield Wednesday has more). It’s very hard to break them.
At the end of September, their interim manager was sacked and they appointed Paul Warne as a new manager. He stabilized things after not so good start to the season.
Accrington Stanley Team News
Accrington is in League One since 2018 and in the previous four seasons, they always finish in the middle of the table. But this season Accrington is struggling. This is, so far, their hardest season in the third tier. Cannot be said that no one could expect that, because they had lost a couple of key players during the summer, but Accrington is in the relegation zone after 22 rounds with 22 points and five wins.
They are in the run of three games without a win and they have won only once in the last 11 games. Accrington is in the worst form in the league in the last two months. They won only six points from the possible 33!
They have one of the worst attacks in the league with only 21 goals scored (only three teams scored fewer) and they have one of the worst defences in the league with 34 goals conceded (only four teams conceded more).
This season they are struggling against the top teams in the league and from eight games against the opposition from the top 10 they have won only one point!

Derby County vs Accrington Stanley Prediction
Derby County is a huge favourite to win here and grab all three points. They must improve their home record if they want to be more competitive for the top of the table.
They are a more balanced team since Paul Warne come in and it’s very hard to score a goal against them. Paul Warn is known as a manager who wants to have a stable defence, before everything.
Accrington is one of the weakest teams in the league and in the worst form in the recent week, Derby must take advantage of that.
