Match preview

Turf Moor hosts a crucial Championship clash on September 19, 2026, as struggling Burnley welcome Derby County. The Clarets are enduring a torrid season, sitting near the foot of the table with a dismal 13% win rate (4W 8D 20L). Their recent form paints a bleak picture, with four losses and one draw in their last five outings, scoring a mere 33 goals while conceding 63. Confidence will undoubtedly be low amongst the home faithful.

In stark contrast, Derby County arrive with a significantly stronger record (20W 9D 17L), boasting a 43% win rate and netting 67 goals this campaign. While their last five matches have been somewhat mixed (2W 0D 3L), they remain firm favourites. The head-to-head record offers some hope for Burnley, with a 2-1 victory in their most recent encounter and a dominant 4-1 win prior to that, though three of the last five meetings have been goalless draws. With the bookmakers giving Burnley a mere 10% chance of victory and Derby sharing 45% with a draw, the Rams will be looking to capitalise on Burnley's fragility. Expect Derby to push for an early goal, while Burnley will need to show a resilience rarely seen this season to snatch a point or more.
