Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It would probably be a little strong to say that we expect John Coleman and Mark Warburton to park the bus here, but we're certainly not expecting a flood of goals as Derby and Stoke go head-to-head. The statistics belowsuggest there will be under 2.5 goals (i.e. 2 goals of fewer in total), and we're saying that looks like a strong prediction. With best odds of 1.57 available on under 2.5 goals and neither side looking like strong favourites to win, that's the bet we're recommending.
