Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Accrington
Match Time & Date:

16:00
Prediction: 1-2
Derby
The Wham Stadium will host Saturday’s League One game between Accrington and Derby County, the two mid-table sides. The Accy Stanley suffered a heavy 3-0 loss to Plymouth at the weekend, with the team dropping to 13th place in the standings. Since experienced midfielder Seamus Conneely misses the match through suspension, we are not tempted to put our money on the home side.
The Rams, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 2-1 defeat to Port Vale, and seeing that Accrington experienced all sorts of problems at the back in their last league match, away win should be considered. Keep in mind, though, that Ireland international James Collins is banned for the match following his sending off in the defeat to the Valiants. In their last meeting at the venue Derby County defeated Accrington thanks to Martyn Waghorn’s late goal.

Highlighted Team (Derby):
Derby County is one of the 12 founder members of the Football League. However, nowadays the Rams compete in the Championship and they play their home matches at Pride Park Stadium. Derby County have won the two trophies in the English top flight (1971/1972, 1974/1975), with the team lifting the FA Cup trophy just after the World War II (1946).
Derby’s main rivals are Nottingham Forest, Leicester City and Leeds United, but the rivalry between Forest and Derby is regarded as the biggest one.
The two teams take on each other in the East Midlands derby. The colour of Derby’s shirts is white, whilst their shorts are black. It has to be noted that the club was founded in 1884 by William Morley. The Rams competed in the European competitions four times, but they did not record a notable result in the European Cups. The club’s chairman is Mel Morris.
