Derby County vs Fulham Preview
Derby County were in the top two just a matter of weeks ago, but a poor run of form has seen them drop down to 4th place in the Championship. They haven’t won since a 3-0 triumph over Brentford at the beginning of February, but Gary Rowett won’t be panicking.
The Rams will be without veteran defender Chris Baird after he was sent off against Reading in the 3-3 draw. Kasey Palmer has looked very good recently with 2 goals in 2 games, so he is likely to start yet again here. Sam Winnall is missing through injury, while George Thorne is a doubt with an ongoing injury issue.
Fulham got their biggest win of the season on Saturday as they dispatched league leaders Wolves 2-0 at Craven Cottage. They really seem to raise their game for the big matches, which bodes well for Saturday’s contest.
Aleksandar Mitrovic has looked pretty good since he arrived on loan from Newcastle United in January. He has a point to prove and has already scored a few goals. He will lead the line again here, supported with the wide play of Ryan Sessegnon. There are no injury worries for Fulham which is great news for them.

Derby County vs Fulham Prediction
This match is between 4th and 5th in the league and if one of these sides were to win, they will be in a good position to chase down the top 2. The loser would find themselves looking over their shoulder at the potential of dropping out of the play-off places altogether.
Derby will have been gutted not to beat Reading last week after leading 1-0 and 3-2 at different points in the match. They have a few issues at either end of the pitch. David Nugent hasn’t scored in his last 7 appearances, and they have been leaking goals at the back recently.
Fulham’s Ryan Sessegnon has been attracting a lot of attention from big clubs due to his excellent performances, which is unsurprising really. Playing further up the pitch has really helped the youngster, and he is always a goal threat.
The tip for this one is a high scoring draw. It would be an extra point for each, but neither team would be truly satisfied.
