Derby County vs Cardiff City: Form, H2H & Goals

Derby County and Cardiff City meet in Championship — one fixture among the hundreds English football gets through, week in and week out, across a pyramid that runs from the Premier League all the way down to the regional divisions. Promotion and relegation tie every rung of that ladder together, which is why a result here matters whatever the level. Below: form, the head-to-head, and the goals, before any odds enter the picture.

When Derby County and Cardiff City have met

Few places keep football records as long as England does — the game has been organised here since the nineteenth century, and a head-to-head often reads truer than the league table. The earlier meetings we hold are below; a blank table just means there's nothing logged between these two yet, which happens often enough in cup ties that throw together clubs from different divisions.

Goals: the two sides by the numbers

Goals scored so far:


Derby County — 21

Worth reading alongside the form rather than on their own — English sides can carry very different records home and away, and a goals column only tells half that story.
