Brentford 3-0 Derby
Image source, Rex FeaturesBrentford had two goals in five Championship games before today.
They'd had the worst conversion rate of any side in the division - putting away just 3.1% of their 65 shots.
Safe to say that they have brought their shooting boots with them to Griffin Park this afternoon.
Can Derby find the inspiration to mount a comeback? Phillip Cocu has brought on Duane Holmes for Lee Buchanan.

No game at Gigg Lane, but plenty of fans...published at 15:58 British Summer Time 31 August 2019
Sam Harris
鶹Լ Sport at Gigg Lane"There may not be a game at Gigg Lane this afternoon, but plenty of Bury fans turned up to listen to local MP James Frith.
"The ground had a very strange feel to it, almost like one of those abandoned houses that your parents would tell you not to go near.
"Despite that the Shakers fans were there in numbers to hear the rallying speech from Frith and they didn’t once stop singing - even the rain couldn’t keep them away.
“Fans took pictures in what were once their seats as the elderly members of the fanbase stood overlooking the stadium which has provided countless memories for them over the years.”
