Match Facts
Derby County have won just one of their last eight league games against Cardiff City (D2 L5), though that sole victory came in their last home fixture against the Welsh side – a 1-0 win in September 2024.
Cardiff City have won just one of their last five away league games against derby County (D2 L2), scoring exactly one goal in four of those matches.
Derby are looking to avoid losing their opening two league games of a campaign for the second consecutive season; prior to that, the Rams had only suffered that fate once since 2005-06 onwards (in 2020-21).
Cardiff have failed to win their opening away league game of a campaign in each of the last four seasons (D2 L2), with their last in the Championship witnessing them lose 5-0 to Burnley in 2024.
New Derby signing Alex Mowatt has netted three goals across 16 league matches against Cardiff – his joint-most against any team during his career.
