  1. No time for pleasantries at Pride Parkpublished at 18:50 Greenwich Mean Time 23 February 2021

    Derby v Huddersfield (19:00 GMT)

    Some familiar faces return to Derby County's Pride Park this evening, with Richard Keogh and Duane Holmes now wearing the colours of tonight's opponents Huddersfield.

    Keogh in particular was a long-serving bastion at Pride Park but his slightly ignominious exit following a car crash which left him with a broken ankle perhaps soured things.

    Holmes left during the transfer window, having fallen out of the first-team picture at Derby, and returned to his boyhood club.

    Rams boss Wayne Rooney has been quick to lay down a line for players that any pleasantries must wait until full-time. Just two points separate the two teams as both seek to pull away from the drop zone.

    It's business time.

  2. Big task for Blues as leaders visitpublished at 18:49 Greenwich Mean Time 23 February 2021

    Birmingham moved out of the Championship relegation zone on Saturday with a crucial 1-0 win at fellow strugglers Sheffield Wednesday, easing the pressure ever-so-slightly on boss Aitor Karanka.

    Leaders Norwich have won their past three to extend their cushion at the top and will go 10 points clear with victory at St Andrew's Trillion Trophy Stadium, with Brentford and Watford not playing until Wednesday.

    Of the past 15 league meetings between the sides Birmingham have won just one, while the Blues have just three victories in their past 31 home league matches - so it looks a big task.
