Derby come into this match in reasonable shape. Their recent wins have been narrow, and they've also had a couple of draws along with one heavy defeat, so they look competitive but not dominant.

Middlesbrough's recent form is a bit mixed - some draws and a loss, but they also picked up a win, so they don't look like they're struggling badly. With no previous meetings to go on, this feels like a close, hard-to-call game, and a draw looks like the most likely outcome.
