Prediction: 1-3
Derby County
Rotherham United take on Derby County at their AESSEAL New York Stadium on day 7 of the new Championship campaign. The Millers aim to put an end to Derby County’s four-game winning run in all competitions, but beating the high-flying Rams is easier said than done. Derby County have been scoring goals for fun of late and a win over Rotherham United could see them climb to top position in the Championship standings. The Rams recorded four wins in previous five away games in all competitions, which is yet another reason why we are tempted to put our money on the visitors. A man to watch in Frank Lampard’s team will be Wales international Tom Lawrence, who has been in a fine form at the start of the season. It has to be noted that the Millers have not defeated the Rams in the Championship since 2002.
