Derby are desperate for points here as they 23rd and six points away from safety with Reading currently in 21st. Coventry need the victory to get their play-off push back on track after a poor run of form.

Last time out the Rams lost 3-1 away to Blackburn to make it back-to-back defeats and five in their last six. The Sky Blues lost at home to Hull meaning they three of their last four and taken just four points in five.

At home, County do their best work and have six victories, one draw and just one defeat in their last eight. On the road, Coventry have lost three of their last five and won just three of nine.

Both teams to score has happened in just one of their last five and two of the last seven for Derby. The visitors meanwhile tend to see goals in their games with four of their last six seeing both teams net.

Ravel Morrison netted in midweek and now has three goals in his last three two of them coming in his last home start. Viktor Gyokeres has 13 goals this campaign but just two of them in the last nine.

Derby vs Coventry: Match Stats

At first glance backing Derby to win this game in the draw no bet market might seem strange but Coventry are badly out of form. The Sky Blues have lost three of their last four while Derby have won six of their last eight so side with them in the draw no bet market.

Ravel Morrison is a player who promised much in his career but did not deliver on those promises. He has though found some form for Derby with three in his last three and looks far too big to net here.
