Wednesday’s bet of the day: Chesterfield vs Derby County, 7.30pm
Derby make the short trip to Chesterfield this evening looking to ramp up their preparations for the Championship season that starts on August 9.
Paul Warne’s team secured automatic promotion from League One last season and are 14/1 shots to be promoted to the Premier League – but also 5/1 third favourites in the relegation betting.
Chesterfield, meanwhile, are looking forward to life back in the Football League after a six-year absence. The Spireites won the National League by 12 points last season under Paul Cook.
Last Friday, Derby beat Stockport County in a pre-season friendly played in Spain and we’re backing them to make the two-division gap between the sides to tell here.
