What channel is Stoke v Derby Championship match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Check out how to watch Stoke v Derby in the Championship, including TV channel, live stream coverage and kick-off time.
It is lift-off in the Championship as Stoke City entertain Derby County in the Potteries on the opening weekend of the new campaign.
The Potters have been serial underachievers since dropping out of the Premier League in 2018 but there is hope that, heading into his first full season at the helm, Mark Robins can build something significant.
Having narrowly avoided the drop last term, Robins has been backed by the club chiefs and now needs to repay that faith.
Derby, too, are looking up the table after the impact John Eustace made following his mid-season return.
Eustace steered the Rams clear of relegation and has been allowed to make wholesale changes to the squad.
Just a point separated Stoke and the visitors at the end of last season, which makes Saturday's game an interesting test of their respective summer progress.
