Derby head into the match on the back of a 3-1 defeat to Stoke City in their league opener, a result that exposed ongoing defensive issues.

Manager John Eustace is also likely to make changes, using the cup to give minutes to younger players and new signings, though injuries and absences could weaken their options.

With Derby’s strong head tohead record but West Brom’s current form and home advantage, this tie looks finely balanced as both clubs aim to advance while managing early season fixtures.
