Derby County are ready to welcome Fulham to Pride Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Rams are clearly on top, having won 13 and lost only 3 of the 23 games.
The previous match played between the two at Pride Park was more than three years back, in January 2005, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a F.A. Cup match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Derby County at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Rams will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
