Derby have Frank Lampard on the bench and an offensive philosophy

Home team hope to stay out of danger for another year, without being significantly reinforced. Last year's 20th place does not give them any hopes for something more. Combining this with the fact that Reading are one of the most likely underdog favorites, then we certainly can't expect much. Their recent  0-4 defeat from Crystal Palace in their last friendly game, is another sign of their unpreparedness. 

On the contrary, I expect more from Derby who were so close to the top level last year but didn't overcome Fulham at play off to do so. This year they have Frank Lampard on their bench. Chelsea's old star certainly made some moves to borrow one of the most promising talents of his previous team, 19 years old Mason Mount, who as Vitesse's midfielder the previous year, he scored 14 times, an impressive number for a midfielder. He also had quite decent performances in his friendly games and in the last three games he won Wolves, Coventry and Southampton.

Derby haven't won Reading in their home since 2015, but this year they seem quite confident to do so. I would choose the away win of Lampard's team at 2.39 with a 6 points bet.
