Derby County vs Coventry City

Current streaks

Recent form

Derby County

Derby County's recent form presents a mixed picture, with the Rams showing promise in pre-season friendlies but struggling in their Championship opener. They've won three of their last six matches, including impressive victories against Atromitos and Red Bull Salzburg. However, their league campaign has started poorly, with a 3-1 defeat to Stoke City leaving them 23rd in the table after one game. The team's goalscoring form has been relatively strong, averaging 1.67 goals per game, but their defence has been leaky, conceding 1.5 goals per match. Notably, Derby have been involved in high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in 83% of matches. Their 3-2 win against Walsall stands out as a particularly entertaining encounter. While Derby have shown flashes of quality, they'll need to improve their defensive record to climb the Championship table.

Coventry City

Coventry City have shown mixed form in their recent matches, with a notable unbeaten streak of five games across all competitions. The Sky Blues have demonstrated resilience, securing two wins and three draws in their last six outings. Defensively, they have been solid, keeping three clean sheets and conceding an average of just 0.83 goals per game. However, their attacking output has been modest, scoring 1.17 goals per game on average. The team's matches have tended to be low-scoring affairs, with 67% of their recent games featuring under 2.5 goals. Coventry's ability to avoid defeat has been a positive sign, but their high number of draws suggests they may need to find a way to turn these stalemates into victories if they hope to climb from their current 14th position in the Championship table.

Recent home/away form

Derby County

Derby County have shown a mixed but generally positive form at home in their recent fixtures. The Rams have managed to secure three wins, two draws, and only one loss in their last six home games, demonstrating resilience at Pride Park. Notably, Derby have been impressively solid defensively, keeping five clean sheets in these six matches and conceding only one goal overall. Their goal-scoring record has been modest but consistent, netting six times across the six games. Interestingly, all of Derby's recent home matches have been low-scoring affairs, with 100% of the games featuring under 2.5 goals. The team's defensive prowess is further highlighted by the fact that in none of these matches did both teams score. While Derby haven't embarked on any significant winning or losing streaks at home, they have shown a tendency to grind out results, with half of their recent home games ending in either 2-0 victories or goalless draws.

Coventry City

Coventry City's recent away form has been rather inconsistent, with their last victory coming in a friendly match against Bristol Rovers. In their previous six away fixtures, the Sky Blues have managed only one win, alongside two draws and three losses. There's a noticeable run of three consecutive matches without a win in the Championship, which includes back-to-back losses against Plymouth Argyle and Luton Town. Whilst Coventry have been scoring consistently, netting in five out of six games, they've struggled defensively, keeping only one clean sheet. The 3-1 defeats to both Sheffield United and Plymouth Argyle stand out as particularly high-scoring affairs. Despite their mixed results, Coventry have shown resilience, with both teams scoring in 67% of these matches, suggesting they're capable of finding the net even when facing stronger opposition away from home.
