With both Derby County and Leicester City being involved in some high-scoring games of late, a 2-2 draw is on the cards at Pride Park on Saturday afternoon. The Rams have been impressive at home this season, picking up 2.00 points per game at Pride Park. Their recent run shows solid attacking output, averaging 1.40 goals per match, while keeping a tidy defensive record with just 1.00 goal conceded per home game. Across all venues, the Rams boast a 70% BTTS rate and are scoring consistently, failing to find the net only 10% of the time. All Johnston, Morris, Ozoh, and Travis remain in the recovery room, but there are no fresh injury worries for the home side.
Leicester City have been having their ups and downs this season, winning only 30% of their matches overall and failing to keep a clean sheet in any game so far. They do maintain an average of 1.20 goals scored per away game, but defensive frailties remain evident with 1.60 goals conceded per match on the road. Their recent form also reflects unpredictability, with 70% BTTS in overall games, indicating matches are rarely one-sided. Wout Faes’ potential absence could be a significant blow for the Foxes, weakening their already leaky backline.
Over 2.5 Goals is our main betting tip for this matchup as recent history and stats support a high-scoring affair. BTTS and Over 9.5 Corners betting option seem appealing as well.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 6 December 2025 at 12:30.
