Recent respective form guides
Derby County's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Rams have scored 5, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.
Chelsea's away form is none too clever either, remaining unbeaten in their last six, winning five and drawing the one. Those games have seen the Blues pummel 11 goals, and let in 1.
Derby County find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 13 games have yielded only 6 points. Chelsea sit in a healthy 4th in the league, and have picked up 25 points from their 13 games.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Rams at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Blues come away with an easy victory. Away win
