Derby got promoted into the Championship for their first season back in the second tier for the first time in three years.
They just avoided relegation last season and will be hoping for a better season after facing one of the most difficult campaigns with the likes of Leeds United, Burnley and Sheffield United all acquiring 90+ points.
Stoke only just finished one point above them and also need to improve massively to avoid a tough season ahead.
The reverse fixture last year was actually the final game of the season, so it’s fitting they meet again to open their accounts three months later.
City didn’t finish the season well as they faced Leeds and Sheffield United, losing 8-0 across the two games before settling for a 0-0 draw against Derby.
Stoke have had a fairly encouraging pre-season though and definitely have the potential for better.
Derby County have made a few interesting signings, making the most of free transfers for some experience, including Andreas Wiemann, Danny Batth and Richard O’Donnell.
But the coup this year has been the signing of Patrick Agyemang from the MLS who could fit right into the Championship after impressing for Charlotte, where he’s netted 17 times in just 59 appearances.
Stoke haven’t in comparison but have made a few signings where they’re looking to get the most of some younger players as well as seasoned veteran and defender Aaron Cresswell.
