WBA Fixture Chosen For Sky Sports Coverage

Derby County’s home fixture against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday 24th August 2019 has been selected for live Sky Sports coverage.

The game has now been moved from a 3pm kick off to the earlier time of 12:30pm to accommodate the Sky Sports cameras.

The Rams were convincing winners against the Baggies twice last season in the Sky Bet Championship.

Goals from Jack Marriott, Tom Lawrence, Harry Wilson and Scott Malone secured a 4-1 victory at the Hawthorns, whilst Derby ran out 3-1 winners on the final day of the 2018/19 season at Pride Park Stadium.

Martyn Waghorn, Mason Bennett and Wilson, this time from the penalty spot, scored in the victory which secured the Rams’ place in the Sky Bet Championship Play-Offs.

It’s the second Rams fixture to be confirmed for Sky Sports coverage alongside the opening game of the season against Huddersfield Town at the John Smith’s Stadium on Monday 5th August (7:45pm kick off).
