Promotion-chasing duo Leicester City and Derby County face off in Friday’s Sky Bet Championship clash, live on Sky Sports HD1, with the both sides in fine form.

Nigel Pearson’s side are four points clear at the top of the table after four consecutive league wins and are now 11/8 with the League sponsors to enjoy title success in May.

Fourth place Derby are in fine form themselves under new boss Steve McClaren, with eight wins in their last ten league outings, and are 13/10 to secure a return to the Premier League.

Derby are 11/4 with the online bookmaker to claim their first-ever win at the King Power Stadium – while Leicester are 1/1 to add another three points to their total. A draw is priced up at 12/5.

The Foxes certainly found their scoring boots in their last home game, netting five against a beleaguered Bolton side, and Derby will have to be wary, with different scorers for each of their five goals and Derby are 11/2 to win to nil.

The last time these sides met in the league, Leicester managed to snatch a 1-0 victory at the iPro Stadium, but that was a different Rams’ side back then, and McClaren will be determined to prove he can cut it against the division’s best.

It’s 10/1 for Derby to turn that scoreline around and claim a 1-0 away win at the King Power Stadium.

In the goal scorer market, David Nugent, who has scored in three of his last four games, is 4/1 to break the deadlock and even money to score anytime. For Derby, Chris Martin is a 7/1 shot with the in-form midfielder Craig Bryson is 10/1 to net first and 7/2 to score anytime.

You can get odds of 66/1 for Martin to score in a 1-0 Derby win and Jamie Ward to score first at 9/1 in Sky Bet’s ‘Price Boost’.

New loan signing Patrick Bamford is 5/2 to score at any stage following his arrival from Chelsea for the rest of the season and former Leicester loanee Michael Keane is 7/1 to score first.

If you haven’t already got a Sky Bet account, you can get a completely FREE £5 club bet when you join and register as a Rams fan – and they’ll also offer a FREE matched bet of up to £30.
