Preview: Bristol City vs. Derby County

Bristol City vs. Derby

Bristol City can make it two consecutive wins for only the second time this season when they host Derby County in the Championship on Saturday.

The Robins moved out of the relegation zone last weekend as they saw off fellow strugglers Sheffield Wednesday 3-2 at Hillsborough.

Meanwhile, Derby could move to within a point of the playoff places if they triumph at Ashton Gate for the first time since 1995.

Greg Cunningham, Jody Morris, Martyn Woolford and Steven Davies have all returned to training for City this week, but Jon Stead, Cole Skuse, Lewin Nyatanga and Louis Carey are still sidelined.

Rams defender Jake Buxton was recently ruled out for two months with knee ligament damage.
