Tough game. We have little to gain - and they can play without pressure. We will be expected to win but it would hardly be a shock if we lost.

We can’t lose this. My boss is a Ram. He’s not the most gracious when it comes out to football!

First time in a while we’ve had a strong start to the season, unless we have a dismal December, we won’t be involved in a relegation scrap. This should be our focus now, it represents a rare realistic chance of silverware. Judging by last season, Roy takes it seriously too. I expect us to beat Derby. We are long overdue our day of glory, we are on our best ever run in the Premier League. It will count for little if we never win a trophy.

I have already mentioned about Derby's less than impressive away form this season but will add that they haven't scored in their last 4 away games. Playing for them up front has been Chris Martin who was on loan to us from Norwich back in 2011-12 when Freedman was manager. The game is after the opening of the transfer window so perhaps some new signings will play in the cup-tie.To-Date, manager Cocu's signings have mostly been players brought in on loan.
