VS
Burnley vs Derby carries a Burnley edge through its Championship scorelines, although the matchup also contains scoreless league meetings. Burnley won 2–0 in March 2014 and 4–1 in January 2016, while the league meetings on 10 December 2024 and 8 April 2025 both ended 0–0. Burnley’s 2–1 League Cup win on 26 August 2025 adds context, but its secondary setting should not outweigh the league pattern.

Stats for this game
Matchup Burnley VS Derby
Burnley hold the stronger league markers
Burnley’s 2–0 victory on 1 March 2014 and 4–1 result on 25 January 2016 provide the clearest competitive margins in this comparison. They show that the clubs have produced separation, but the scorelines do not dictate every meeting. The league matches on 10 December 2024 and 8 April 2025 both finished 0–0, keeping Derby’s resistance central to the story. The contrast between separation and stalemate is central to its appeal.
The cup result needs context
Burnley won 2–1 in the League Cup on 26 August 2025, a result that adds another dated counterpoint but belongs to a secondary competition. It supports Burnley’s side of the comparison without replacing the Championship results or proving permanent control. The enduring question is whether Burnley can turn its stronger margins into a repeatable league edge, or whether Derby can keep the scoreline close enough for the balance to remain contested.
