Wrexham
- Wrexham have been the form team in the Championship so far with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat in their last 5 contests, but they have been less impressive on their own turf.
- The Dragons have 2 wins, both away from home, at Millwall (2-0) and Norwich City (3-2) while they have drawn 1 and lost 2 of their 3 home games, conceding 8 goals in the process, making the Wrexham vs Derby County prediction all the more intriguing for fans and punters.
- In Kieffer Moore, Wrexham have the ideal spearhead to play off wing-back crosses and long balls over the top of the opposition defense.
Derby County
- Avoiding defeat is the key for John Eustace’s Derby County side, who are looking for stability after a summer of flux at the club.
- Since Eustace’s appointment as manager in February 2025, the Rams have played with a back four, a double pivot and with a measured approach to pressing that has seen them control the pace of games and frustrate opponents.
- Derby’s record in their last 5 Championship matches reads - 1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses - with a gritty 1-0 away win at West Bromwich the highlight, something to consider for any Wrexham vs Derby County betting tips.
