Derby County’s Survival Battle: How Their Final Fixtures Stack Up Against Relegation Rivals

The clock is ticking on one of the biggest Championship relegation battles in recent history.

There are only three-and-a-half weeks remaining in the league this season and the bottom nine clubs are all still panicking to various degrees about whether they will stay up.

Tuesday night’s results at the bottom saw Stoke City and Luton Town draw, Cardiff City scramble to a point at Preston North End and Hull City go down 1-0 at Watford. Derby County managed to post a 0-0 draw with Burnley despite having only 30 per cent of possession.
On Wednesday night, Plymouth Argyle head to Swansea City while Oxford United host Queens Park Rangers and Portsmouth make the trip to Coventry.

Miron Muslic had called it a ‘must win’ match when Plymouth hosted Norwich at the weekend – and they won, 2-1. They now head into a mid-week away trip to Swansea (Wednesday, 7.45pm)
