THE PREDICTION
After having been extremely satisfied with the first few months of their return to the second tier, the rigours of the Championship have started to take their toll on newly promoted Blackpool, who are winless in six games, scoring just two goals over that period. Against a Derby County side scrapping for every point they can get, it may prove to be another tough afternoon for the Tangerines who cannot afford to show the same lack of cutting edge in front of goal as they have in recent matches. Home advantage being in their favour should help Derby, with a supportive home crowd likely to play a key part, but with one point from their last three it could also end up being a tough afternoon for the Rams against a Blackpool defence who will look to prioritise a clean sheet. Under 2.5 goals looks very much cards in this one and in terms of an overall result, it would be no surprise if Derby and Blackpool cancelled each other out and were forced to settle for a point apiece.
