Derby (home)
- The Rams and Canaries are locked on 8 points after 9 games played and sit 20th and 19th in the early standings respectively.
- Derby have failed to win any of their 5 home fixtures, drawing 3 and losing 2.
- John Eustace has brought a pragmatic 'organisation first' approach to Pride Park, with Derby sitting deep in a compact shape and remaining compact through transitions.
- Carlton Morris is their main goal threat, with 4 goals in 9 Championship games.
Norwich (away)
- Norwich have won 2, drawn 2 and lost 1 away from home.
- Norwich are without a win in their last 5, drawing 2 and losing 3, including their last 2.
- Liam Manning’s philosophy is the polar opposite of Eustace’s, but Norwich have also struggled to find their flow this term with 2 draws and 3 defeats from their last 5 games.
- Norwich will press high and attempt to control the tempo by retaining possession and playing a high-tempo game, with their fullbacks providing width and their advanced midfielders looking to turn defense into attack quickly.
Key Players
Joshua Sargent is their talisman and top scorer with 5 Championship goals this campaign, while Jovon Makama has provided some firepower during their poor run with 2 in his last 5 appearances .
