Tony Incenzo previews Friday’s contest between Derby County and Bristol City ahead of another big weekend in the EFL Championship.
AS an appetising third instalment of EFL Championship action approaches this weekend, it is worth analysing the fledgling table.
Just three teams hold 100% records thereby confounding Championship betting patterns. Meanwhile six sides have yet to pick up a point.
Here are the upcoming pairings I am anticipating most alongside considered score predictions to guide your live betting…
Derby County v Bristol City Odds
Punters can bet on Derby vs Bristol City at William Hill and here is the current state of the market:
- Derby – 9/5
- Draw – 21/10
- Bristol City – 6/4
Derby County Preview
Slumbering third bottom following two defeats. Their eight goals leaked is the worst record anywhere in the Championship thus far.
Rams boss John Eustace said he was “really disappointing to lose” 5-3 at home to Coventry City last Saturday especially after leading 3-2 with less than 20 minutes to go. Derby are reported to be chasing the loan signing of Liverpool winger Kaide Gordon.
Bristol City Preview
A win and a draw to date plus the League Cup victory over MK Dons. Therefore a positive impact for new head coach Gerhard Struber who arrived on 19th June.
Struber says his team “can improve”. Anis Mehmeti has caught my eye as Bristol City’s most exciting creative player in the early games.
Derby v Bristol City score prediction: Derby’s first point 2-2.
