The Rams enjoyed a bright start under Frank Lampard but find themselves in eighth place, two points behind Bristol City who occupy the final play-off spot.

Derby’s form has been patchy though last week’s resounding 4-0 victory over floundering Bolton will have patched up confidence around midlands club.

Chelsea wonderkid Mason Mount scored a hat-trick in the game at Pride Park and will hope he can fire his loan side back into play-off contention.

Birmingham have transformed from outside play-off dark horses to relegation battlers this season following their nine-point deduction over financial issues.

They are unbeaten in three but face a tough task to extend that run.

Who will win? RadioTimes.com says...

Derby have not travelled well in 2019 so far having lost four of seven away games this year.
