- 普雷斯顿在本赛季迄今为止的五场锦标赛中只被击败过一次。
- 自夏天以来，德比在第二梯队的五次尝试中只赢了一次。
- 德比本赛季的五场联赛中有四场在两端都有进球。
普雷斯顿可以保持他们令人印象深刻的开局
德比将在周六与普雷斯顿的比赛中拉开序幕，成为市场上的热门，然而，在Pride Park对阵County可能是更好的获利途径。
自夏天以来，普雷斯顿队给人留下了深刻的印象，在赛季初期的比赛中，他们已经击败了莱斯特城队（2比1）和伊普斯维奇队（1比0）这两支新降级的球队，上周末，他们在一场激动人心的2比2战平中战胜了英冠早期领头羊米德尔斯堡队。
普雷斯顿在五次锦标赛任务中只输了一次，平均每场比赛只丢1.0个球，尽管他们迄今为止最好的工作都是在Deepdale完成的，但北端队得到了支持，以避免在苦苦挣扎的德比客场失利。
上一次在WBA的比赛中，郡队最终以一场胜利打破了他们的僵局，然而，他们1比0的胜利正是扣杀的定义，德比队在山楂球场的唯一一次射门中打入了制胜球。
在此之前，德比在前四场锦标赛中均未获胜，每场比赛至少失球两次，而公羊队在预期进球数（4.00）方面排名垫底。
普雷斯顿本赛季防守稳健，乔丹·斯托里、刘易斯·吉布森和安德鲁·休斯在约翰·尤斯塔斯的后三分球系统中表现出色，而北端队在这里可以挫败德比。
由于郡队正在努力争取胜利和状态，普雷斯顿是周六双机会市场的价值选择，尽管北端的客场小问题要求在正确的得分市场上保持谨慎。
普雷斯顿在8月份的锦标赛和卡拉堡杯的QPR（1-1）和巴罗（1-0）的两场客场测试中只进了一球，尽管他们在最近一次去朴茨茅斯的比赛中以1-0击败了对手，因此在正确的分数赌注下支持1-1战平可能是最安全的选择。
- Preston have been beaten only once in five Championship fixtures so far this term.
- Derby have won only once in five attempts in the second tier since the summer.
- Four of Derby’s five league games this season have featured goals at both ends.
Preston can maintain their impressive start
Derby will kick off Saturday’s encounter with Preston as market favourites, however, opposing County at Pride Park could be a better route to profit.
Visitors Preston have impressed since the summer and have already beaten two newly-relegated outfits in Leicester (2-1) and Ipswich (1-0) in the campaign’s early throes, and last weekend they held their own against early Championship leaders Middlesbrough in a pulsating 2-2 draw.
Preston have lost only once in five Championship assignments overall while conceding just 1.0 goal per game on average and though all of their best work so far has been done at Deepdale, North End are backed to avoid defeat on the road at struggling Derby.
County finally broke their duck with a win at WBA last time out, however, their 1-0 victory was the very definition of smash and grab, with Derby scoring their winner from their only shot on target at The Hawthorns.
Derby failed to win any of their first four Championship fixtures before that, conceding at least twice in each outing, while the Rams rank bottom of the division for expected goals (4.00).
Preston have defended solidly this season with Jordan Storey, Lewis Gibson and Andrew Hughes excelling in John Eustace’s back-three system, and North End can frustrate Derby here.
With County struggling for wins and form, Preston are the value pick in the double chance market on Saturday, though North End’s away-day niggles call for some caution in the correct score market.
Preston scored just once in their two away tests at QPR (1-1) and Barrow (1-0) in the Championship and Carabao Cup in August, though they were beaten 1-0 on their most recent trip to Portsmouth, so backing a 1-1 draw in the correct score stakes might be the safest option.
