  • 15' Joe Allen has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Nick Powell, as he is very good at scoring at Bet365 Stadium with 12 goals in the last 10 games.
  • 21' Tommy Smith was booked on 21.
  • 26' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Stoke City FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 31' Derby County FC is showing some good football. However, Derby County FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 36' Teden Mengi is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Derby County FC tonight.
  • 41' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 46' It looks surprising Stoke City FC does not make any changes. Louie Watson has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 51' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 56' With 0 assists to his name this season, Kelle Roos is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Derby County FC.

  • 69' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
