            Bristol Rovers vs Derby County Prediction, Tips & Stats

            Derby County look to out pressure on Bolton Wanderers this weekend with a win away to Bristol Rovers at the Memorial Stadium where the home team have jumped into the top half of the table.

            It's been a much better few weeks for Bristol with the club defeating Leyton Orient last time out and Carlisle United before that - Chris Martin and Scott Sinclair scored against Carlisle before Martin netted again against Leyton Orient.

            The two-game winning run puts Bristol up into 11th and back into the top half of the table, and they are also now ahead of Wigan Athletic in 13th and in the bottom half by five points. Rovers have also managed to pick up all three points away to Stevenage this past month and have also defeated Exeter City on the road back in early February just one week on from a home win against Oxford United.

            Derby are in third and one point behind Bolton in the League One standings. This sees the Rams with 21 wins from 36, and although this is just one win less than Portsmouth, the club are coming into this game seven behind the league leaders. Worse yet, with Barnsley and Peterborough United just behind them having games in hand, the club are at risk of losing grip on third too.

            The Rams eased to all three points against Port Vale last time out, and this also ended a two-game losing run after a home loss to Charlton Athletic and a loss by the same scoreline to fellow promotion hopefuls Barnsley. Regardless, and despite Bristol's impressive form, Derby fans should be confident in getting the job done here.

            Derby County team news

            Derby's topsy-turvy run has seen them deal with a few injuries, and they could now be without Tom Barkhuizen after he was taken off against Port Vale. Adams is also not going to feature here with another injury, but Ward, Max Bird and Louie Sibley should all start in midfield - the latter scored again last time out against Port Vale. Nathan Mendez-Laing was also taken off in the win over Vale but seems to be fit to start. Conor Hourihane missed the last outing and should now feature here. Kane Wilson and Korey Smith should also get more minutes. Martyn Waghorn started on the bench against Vale and should now start instead of Barkhuizen.

            Bristol Rovers team news

            Bristol will be able to call on Scott Sinclair in this game despite coming off in the last outing. Chris Martin and Brown will also start up top, but Hunt is set to miss out at right-back with an injury. James Wilson is also suspended after his straight red card against Leyton Orient.
