Prediction: 2-1
Birmingham City
Pride Park Stadium will host Saturday’s football game between Derby County and Birmingham City. The Rams sit in the play-offs berth ahead of the visit of Birmingham City and they are only two points behind automatic promotion places. Derby County did well to beat WBA in their penultimate league match, with the team sharing the spoils with Middlesbrough in yet another Championship derby at the weekend. Frank Lampard undisputedly helped the Rams regain a much-needed confidence and, taking everything into account, it is no surprise they are considered hot favourites to win Saturday’s clash against Birmingham City. The Blues are on a four-game winning run in the English second tier, but Derby Count will surely pose a much bigger threat for them than their previous rivals. In three of their last four meetings in the Championship the Rams emerged triumphant.
