Another in our series of Head 2 Head articles.
As you can see below the Rams have a slight lead overall in the meetings of the two teams with 15 wins to the Seagulls 12 and 3 draws.
Derby County have enjoyed some high scoring wins over the years but wih Brighton now high flyers in the Championship, we are sure the result will be closer this time around.
ou will also note that Derby had their biggest win over Brighton in the FA Cup during the 1945-46 season, winning 6-0 at home and then 4-1 away. Hardly surprising really as this was the year Derby County lifted the FA Cup for the first, and so far only time.
