Derby County face a trip to Preston North End at Deepdale on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Rams will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 34 and win only 9 of the 53 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in December 2009, when they played out a goalless draw in a Championship match.
