Asanovic70 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 (edited) A few stats, we are on our joint longest sequence without a victory against Forest in the league (7), (8) including the loss away in the EFL Cup. We have shared three draws in a row, but are yet to have 4 (11v11). The last eight H2Hs have seen Under (2.5 goals) so surely an Over is due. Today's referee, Robinson, is yet to preside over a draw when officiating at Pride Park (3W 4L). Forest have not scored more than a goal in an away game when he has officiated (2W 4D 5L) though they have managed clean-sheets in the last three, winning two. Hughton yet to win as a manager at Derby. Still, I wouldn't be complacent, Covid has disrupted things. Mowbray had never won at a side managed by Hughton until a week or two ago. I think the fact today is the first Derby game with fans in attendance should play in our favour. I'm hoping history prevails and we end the sequence.

cosmic Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Win, and we’ll stay up, regardless of any incoming points deductions. Lose, and we’re going down. No middle ground. Dean (hick) Saunders, Jourdan, Chester40 and 4 others 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We hadn't shared a 0-0 or a draw with Boro on a Saturday going back to the 70s at least. It was the ninth different result in H2Hs against Warnock's sides (we won LTO). I didn't think we'd win, we are yet to beat Boro 3x in a row at home at 2nd tier level. Two out of three occurred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jourdan Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Is Lawrence even fit enough to play? I thought he needed the international break? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Just now, cosmic said: Stretton on the bench @Carl Sagan But not in the starting 11. Needs our forwards to work incredibly hard with a lot of rotation of that front line and playing through the midfield rather than having a hold-up striker.

Funnily enough I was thinking similar about pressing them... I'm hoping TL along with LS and KJ will press them into long balls, which our defence shouldn't have too many issues with We won't win many of our long balls forward so we'll need to be scrapping for the 2nd balls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Garner and Worrall start for them. Max Lowe (and the likes of Grabban) on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
