Derby County prepare to entertain Walsall at Pride Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Rams are clearly on top, with a 60.00% success rate in the fixture.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Pride Park was just last season, in October 2002, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League Division One match.
