Team News

Derby
Port Vale
  • Conor Hourihane and Callum Elder missed the Charlton loss with minor injuries but are set to be available.
  • Right-back Ryan Nyambe hobbled off against the Addicks and will be assessed.
  • Port Vale have no fresh injury concerns.

Prediction

  • Due to third place Bolton also slipping up, Derby head into the weekend still sitting second despite losing their last two games, the second of which a shock 2-1 home defeat to Charlton.
  • But with Barnsley also now in the automatic promotion picture, nothing less than three points here will be good enough for the Rams.
  • Port Vale were heading for a priceless victory against Fleetwood on Tuesday, only to concede twice late on, a result which saw their winless run extend to nine games.
  • The visitors are considerable underdogs heading to Pride Park, but did beat Derby on their last visit back in October 2022.
