Derby County travel to take on Manchester City at City of Manchester Stadium on Wednesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Rams will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 29 and win only 10 of the 48 games.
The last time the two teams met at Man City was back in December 2000, over five years ago, when they played out a goalless draw in a Premiership match.
