PREMIERSHIP .............


DERBY COUNTY- BLACKBURN ROVERS

County have shown a little fire in their bellies recently , that is the Paul Jewell factor and you can be sure, that any side that he puts out, will give their all. Despite a very extensive injury list, Derby will be forced forward, in search of the 3 points, given their predicament, nothing less will do.

They look especially weak in central defence, where they will be forced to start with a slow, veteran, Championship level, pairing, who could be given a torrid time by the on fire Roque Santa Cruz. With a name like that, it is no surprise that this, is his time of the year. Santa has been taking presents, not giving them and if messrs Dunne and Richards, could not stop him from claimimg two headed goals last time out, Derby's backline is going to struggle. He has 5 goals in his last two away games and 8 of his 9 goals have come on the road.

Savage and Warnock will return following suspension and they and Rovers look to hold all the aces. However, this should get very stretched, especially in the second half and develope into an open affair, I am taking the "over".

6 points "over" 2.25 goals 1.78 asian line.

Back later.
