Team Form

The only win in that stretch was a 2-1 away victory over Fleetwood Town U21 in the Premier League Cup. Defeats against Nottingham Forest U21, Reading U21, Fulham U21, and Wolverhampton Wanderers U21 highlight defensive frailties, conceding 10 goals in those four losses.

- Aug 31: Derby County U21 4-4 West Bromwich Albion U21 (D)
- Aug 24: Reading U21 1-3 Derby County U21 (W)
- Aug 18: Halifax Town 6-2 Derby County U21 (L)
They beat Gateshead and Reading U21 both by 3-1 scorelines, drew 4-4 with West Bromwich Albion U21, and lost to Tottenham Hotspur U21 and Halifax Town. Their attack has been productive with 13 goals in these five games, but defensive lapses remain a concern, especially the 6-2 loss to Halifax Town.
