Top Derby vs Accrington prediction and betting suggestions
Accrington Stanley seem like dead men walking before the start of this game and with Derby killing it in the last month in League One, you can expect the Rams to pile on the pressure from the start.
Contents
Over 3.5 goals
Yes, Derby have the best defense in the league but we still believe that our first Derby vs Accrington Stanley prediction will be a success as the Rams have a terrific attacking duo. The David McGoldrick-James Collins combo has been killing it in League One. Combine their stats together and you get 14 goals and four assists! Both of them will be on the pitch for this game and Paul Warne will go all-out against Accrington from the 1st minute in an attempt to cement the promotion chances.
BTTS – no
Accrington Stanley are simply no match for Derby. Especially, when you take into account that the ‘Owd Reds will have to travel and face their opponent in the worst possible venue – Home Park. The two teams played two games in the past and Accrington Stanley couldn’t score in both of them. And Derby are performing at a very high level at the moment with only 17 goals conceded since the start of the season.
First half/Second half – Derby/Derby
It would be an understatement to say that the Rams are favorites to win this game. Coach Paul Warne’s boys are enjoying life in League One as they are getting closer and closer to the relegation zone. The fans are certainly giving their best to support the players. After all, Derby has the highest League One attendance this season and you can safely say that Pride Park Stadium is the most unhospitable venue.
Derby vs Accrington: match preview and team news
The Rams are trailing in the title fight by 18 points but they can still book their place in the Championship.
Derby
The Rams are in 7th place in League One with 35 points to their name and not a single loss in the last five games. With two games yet to be played, we might just see Derby skyrocket to 4th place. All Paul Warne’s boys have to do is win their postponed matches.
Accrington
The ‘Owd Reds aren’t experiencing the momentum that coach John Coleman was hoping for at the start of the season. The team is getting dangerously close to the dreaded relegation zone and the manager will have to rally the troops if Accrington are to remain in League One next season.
