What a difference a month has made for Derby, with the Rams going from mid-table obscurity to having an outside chance of creeping into the play-offs under Gary Rowett. Brentford are their next test.

Match Preview

The visitors have won their last three consecutive games against QPR, Fulham and Birmingham, with the second of the three enabling them to gain some ground on the play-off pack.

- Burton 3-5 Brentford

- Brentford 2-0 Bristol City

- Brentford 2-0 Leeds

- Cardiff 2-1 Brentford

Brentford have won their last two home games against Leeds and Bristol City, with both being in reasonable form in the Championship. Derby will have it tough to close the seven-point gap on sixth place.

The away side have kept a clean sheet in just one of their last nine league matches, with Brentford contrastingly tightening things up at the back a little of late.

- Forest 2-2 Derby

- Derby 1-0 QPR

- Derby 4-2 Fulham

- Birmingham 1-2 Derby

Brentford vs Derby Prediction and Betting Advice
