Derby County will be hoping to start ascending up the table as they visit Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on Saturday (12:30 BST).

The Rams have only won one game this season to find themselves inside the bottom three.

Victory could leave Derby on the same points as 21st placed Norwich City (9) but the side also has a goal difference of seven to make up on the Canaries.

Hosts Sheffield United, meanwhile, are two points shy of the play-offs and looking to break into the top eight.

• Sheffield United have won five of their last seven league games against Derby County (L2), conceding just two goals in total across those five victories.

• After winning this exact fixture 3-1 last season, Derby County will be looking to win successive away league games against Sheffield United for the first time since October 1958.

• Sheffield United have won two of their last three league games (L1), as many as in their opening eight league games to begin 2026-27 (D3 L3).

• Derby have won just one of their last 12 league games (D3 L8), including none of their previous seven (D2 L5), while no side has failed to score in more different Championship games this season than the Rams (4).

• Derby lead the Championship this season for high turnovers (99), and are joint-second for shot-ending high turnovers (16), though they're yet to score from such a situation this term.
