Stats for this game
Matchup West Brom VS Derby
Derby have made the sharper breaks
Derby’s 3–1 win at West Brom on 21 April 2025 and 1–0 league victory there on 13 September 2025 established a Derby edge in the comparison. Yet the scorelines have not created a one-way story. The League Cup meeting on 12 August 2025 ended 1–1 after normal time, with Derby progressing 3–2 in the shootout; the penalties decided advancement, not the match’s 1–1 score.
West Brom’s response matters
West Brom drew 1–1 at Derby on 23 January 2026, then won 1–0 there on 9 September 2026. Those results shift the emphasis back toward resistance and keep Derby’s earlier wins from defining the entire matchup. The enduring question is whether West Brom can turn its response into a sustained balance, or whether Derby’s ability to find narrow margins will reassert itself in the Championship. The shootout remains an important detail, but it should not be read as a 3–2 match score: the cup match itself finished level.
