Derby welcome West Brom to Pride Park on Wednesday evening for a Championship Regular Season matchday 6 fixture, with kick-off at 18:45 UTC. The two sides arrive in starkly different circumstances, separated by six points and sitting in contrasting thirds of the 24-team table.
Derby occupy 20th place having taken four points from their last five matches. Their return of one win, one draw and three defeats from five outings has left them with four points and a goals record of 5-10.
