Preview

Derby were no match for recently relegated West Ham at the London Stadium on Saturday as the Rams suffered a 3-0 away defeat against Nuno Espirito Santo's side. Wednesday's hosts have won just one of their six games in all competitions this season and sit 20th in the standings.

West Brom had Jimmy-Jay Morgan to thank at the weekend as his 36th-minute goal proved enough to see off a struggling Watford side at The Hawthorns. The Baggies had endured a three-match winless streak in all competitions before that win, but are now up to fifth in the Championship standings.
