Derby County vs West Bromwich Albion: match statistics
Derby County presents solid form in the last five matches with a record of 3 wins and 1.8 points per match, while West Bromwich Albion is undergoing a serious crisis with just 0.2 points per match and four defeats in the last five games. The guests' away statistics are alarming – 79% losses in away matches and a goal difference of -11, making them one of the weakest away teams in the league. Derby can be dangerous at home, recording an average of 1.21 goals per match while conceding 1.43, giving them an advantage over WBA, who concede an average of 1.71 goals away while scoring just 0.93. A key factor is also that West Brom has not recorded a single away draw all season, indicating a tendency to lose or win with nothing in between. Considering all these factors, Derby County has a real chance of victory before their own crowd, although their home instability (36% losses) does not allow other scenarios to be ruled out.
