As the defender Callum Elder described it this week, Derby v Leeds is “an amazing fixture”. Stuffed full of history and storylines, from the scraps of the 70s to the spy plots of Bielsa and Lampard, it is a game that never lacks a bit of needle. The rivalry renews in the FA Cup this lunchtime as John Eustace’s Championship side take on Daniel Farke’s Premier League team at Pride Park, where Elder expects a “fierce atmosphere”.

Derby haven’t beaten Leeds since those infamous 2019 Championship playoffs and will look to do so today in this midday kick-off. A spot in the fourth round is at stake.

Evento principal

6 minutos: “Sin Piroe, no hay fiesta”, corearon los aficionados al turismo, reviviendo el tono habitual de la temporada pasada. Jugó en una posición más profunda detrás de Okafor y Nmecha, con Gnonto en el lateral derecho y Harrison en el izquierdo. Blackett-Taylor sacó un córner para Derby pero Leeds bloqueó el pase de Ward.
