Match summary
Derby County vs Stoke City is the Championship fixture at Pride Park Stadium on Saturday 17 October 2026, Matchday 11. Our model picks a Derby win, with a double chance of Derby win or draw.
Why this pick?
Our model makes Derby County the pick because they are rated slightly stronger than Stoke City on our long-run strength rating, and they have home advantage. The main argument against that is Stoke's league position: eighth, with three wins in their last five, while Derby are second from bottom. Yet Derby's recent play suggests they can trouble Stoke: they spend more time in the opposition box than the league average and concede fewer shots, while Stoke create clearly fewer big chances than average and allow more shots and big chances. Those points make Derby's case clearly stronger, and the call is moderate.
