Derby County boss Paul Warne says their rivalry with Burton is no longer a 'David versus Goliath' battle
While just 12 miles of the A38 and nine league place separate the two sides, in football terms a chasm has historically been between them.Derby have only managed one win against the Brewers in five games to date, with the two sides sharing the points in December in what was their first meeting in the third tier.
Meanwhile, Derby are unbeaten in four games, having lost three before that to drop outside the top six."I don't think they come as massive underdogs," Warne toldBurton boss Dino Maamria says he has been focused on getting his side mentally prepared for what they see as their biggest local showdown. When asked what he thought about Derby not viewing it the same way, with traditionally bigger regional rivalries elsewhere, the Brewers boss said: "It's a derby game, no doubt about that.
"We don't live far away, it's the closest team to us. It's a derby day for us. And we won't hide that from our players.
