Prediction: 1-1
West Bromwich
All eyes will be on Pride Park when Derby County and WBA take on each other in the EFL Cup last 64. The Rams head into the match following back-to-back goalless draw with Shrewsbury and Fleetwood, and they should continue relying on their solid-defence. All Louie Sibley, Liam Thompson, Korey Smith, and Jake Rodney are all pushing for a start, as well as Craig Forsyth.
The Baggies, on the other hand, produced their best display of the season in a 5-2 win over Hull City, with Karlan Grant scoring his second goal of the process. Daryl Dike has yet to overcome his injury, whilst all Matt Phillips, Callum Robinson, and Taylor Gardner-Hickman could be recalled to the starting XI. Anyhow, the share of spoils is on the cards as Derby are tough to beat at home.
