Norwich welcome Derby to Carrow Road on Tuesday night (19:45 BST) for a game with huge play-off implications.

The Canaries remain in contention for a top-six finish, just, after Saturday's thumping 4-2 win at Bristol City.

Philippe Clement's men are ninth, eight points behind Hull City in the final play-off spot, with three games to play.

Derby are far better placed, sat eighth, only three points behind the Tigers, with a superior goal difference, after beating Oxford United 1-0 at Pride Park on Saturday.

  • Norwich have lost three of their past four home league games against Derby (D1) since a 3-0 win in January 2017.
  • Following their 1-0 win in October, Derby are looking to complete the league double over Norwich for the first time since 2008-09.
  • Only Sheffield Wednesday have lost more home league games in the Championship this season than Norwich City (W8 D2 L11); only in 1946-47 in Division 3 South have they lost more at home in a league campaign outside the top-flight (12).
  • Derby have lost five of their previous six away league games (W1), as many as in their previous 20 matches in the Championship (W11 D4).
  • Derby manager John Eustace has only won one of his seven previous league meetings with Norwich (D2 L4), though that victory did come in the reverse fixture in October.
