PREVIEW | West Bromwich vs Derby County - team news, lineups, predictions | OneFootball

West Bromwich and Derby County go head-to-head at The Hawthorns this Easter Monday in the EFL Championship.

The Baggies' play-off hopes were dealt a blow last time out, as they lost 2-0 in their Midlands derby against Coventry City and Tony Mowbray's side are currently in 8th position.

Derby had rallied well under John Eustace, but their relegation fears deepened after a 0-1 defeat to Luton Town on Good Friday - a result that boosted the Hatters' own hopes of avoiding the drop.

The last meeting between the Baggies and County ended in a 2-1 Derby win.

The Fan Zone

All Albion Fans: A game against a Midlands rival for us on Easter Monday and we’re at the stage where we play three of the bottom four to finish the season, but even three wins probably won’t be enough. I saw some of Derby’s game against Luton on Easter Friday in a pub in Coventry, and think we’ll have too much for them today. If they come at us as they need points then they’ll come unstuck.  Styles joins Molumby in being suspended. It leaves a conundrum at the back with Holgate or Diakite to come in and Heggem shifting to LB.

Prediction: 3-1
