Derby vs Man United Betting Tips and Predictions: Derby

Derby at 6.20 is a very good price for a team with such a good home record. Man United’s good current run though means it’s not quite as tempting as it could be. Derby are in fine goalscoring form at home too, they’ve scored in all but one of their last 15 fixtures at home. Looking at their away games as well though, things aren’t so good as they’ve won just one of their last five. However, when looking at these cup games it’s probably best to put more emphasis on home form.

They’ve wobbled a little of late, they had been on a run of five victories in a row but have now drawn their two most recent home matches, throwing away a 1-0 lead to a late Huddersfield goal while against Fulham they also let them back into the match. It must be said though that Fulham goalkeeper Marek Rodak had one of the games of his life keeping Derby to just one goal over the 90 minutes.

Much is made of United’s season when the results aren’t going their way. The same can be said of manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. When the results are going their way though the pressure eases and they end up playing even better. The arrival of Bruno Fernandes from Sporting Club de Portugal has breathed new life into the team and they look like a new unit. He’s been outstanding and he can be United’s lynchpin for the rest of the season.

They’ve not lost in any of their last five away matches and have scored 11 goals over their five matches. Yes, one of those was a 0-6 win over Tranmere Rovers but still, a very good return. Against Club Brugge they could only manage a 1-1 away from home but they easily dismissed the Belgian outfit 5-0 in the home leg. In their last away match, they drew 1-1 with Everton in a controversial match, both teams really could have won it but honours were shared. United have scored in 5/5 away matches, maybe Both Teams to Score at 1.80 is the way to go here?
