The Rams won their most recent home game against Swansea City, with Rhian Brewster and Patrick Agyemang finding the back of the net from two second-half corners to hand John Eustace's side just their fifth victory at Pride Park in the 2025/26 campaign.

Football League World has provided a guide for those not in attendance at Pride Park this weekend on how to watch the clash between Derby and Rovers, including kick-off time, the TV channel the game is one, plus other streaming information.

The hosts will be looking to cut the gap to the top six to three points with a win this weekend, while Rovers are in desperate need of more points on the board to help in their fight against relegation.
