Interesting clash of systems. Brighton with the standard 4-4-2 to 4-2-4. Derby 4-1-4-1 to 4-1-2-3. Derby have the extra man in central midfield with Thorne-Hughes - Bryson v Kayal -Stephens. Brighton throw both full backs forward quickly, so Russell will have to track Bruno & Ince will have to track Rosenoir.

    Most on 5 live believe Burnley are a sure thing to go up. Brighton next most likely.

    Brighton have gone close a couple of times, Derby using the extra man well in midfield.

    Two of the best divers in the Championship on show. Baldock for Brighton & Martin for Derby.

    HT 0-0. Brighton lacking a final ball & finish to their build-up play, often involving Knockaert. Derby also look a threat on the counter attack. could go either way. Burnley are sitting pretty.

    A record Amex crowd of 30,292 for #BHAvDCFC - with 1633 in support of @dcfcofficial - thank you all for your support. #BHAFC

    Why so few Derby? Is that all BHA gave them?

    I kind of want Brighton to draw lose today, so Burnley can get promoted later, then Brighton can beat Boro next weekend to get promoted and we can protest knowing it doesn't alter who gets promoted.

    Brighton in a dilemma now. They are committing numbers forward, but are wide open against the counter attack.

    Could also be they don't have anything to play for, saving money for play offs etc

    Brighton haven't been brilliant today, but then I don't think they were that good against us. They did enough, but no more.

    I actually think brighton are going to mess it up again right at the end like they did in the play offs v palace.

    I can't believe I just cheered that goal. Just hope Burnley lose tonight and next week .

    Boro v Brighton will be a cracker. How is Baldock keeping James Wilson out of the team?

    I did the same

    It just felt towards the end that Derby didnt need to win this match and were supporting their fellow Northern sides in Burnley and Middlesbrough.

    That goal was a result for the Southern end of the Championship ;)

    Bit harsh to drop him after he scored against us though...
