In a contest that is valued at well worth over nine figures in overall revenues and potential parachute payments to clubs coming up from the gritty battles of the Championship, bettors can count on one thing - this one is going to be played for all the marbles.

Taking a look at the betting odds, it appears as though Aston Villa come into the contest as the slight favourites to secure progression to the English Premier League next season. They are available at a 5/4 price from most major bookmakers to win the game within the initial 90 minutes of play. Derby County are trading at a 13/5 price and look good value for money if you fancy them to get the better of the Birmingham-based club.

The draw sits at a 12/5 price and that’s probably going to be a sharp in-play wager since many people seem to have the general sense that this one is going to be a tight affair and a 3-3 or 0-0 draw would surprise nobody.

In regards to outright victory in this contest you’ll find that Aston Villa are priced around an 8/13 listing and look to be set to go even lower as we get closer to kick-off. Derby are a 7/5 shot and that looks like an interesting bet if you fancy them to pull it off late.
