Tom Ince has told Derby County's website that his side will go into Monday night's game at home to Burnley full of confidence.

Ince's comments come after Derby recorded their first two victories of the season, with back-to-back wins away at Preston North End and Reading.

Speaking of those victories, Ince said: "We hadn’t had the greatest starts, but we went to Preston where the most important thing was the win. We didn’t play particularly well. Reading, again, is a tough place to go to, especially after their 5-1 win the game before. To grind out a 1-0 win was fantastic."

Ince went on to speak about his side's upcoming Burnley fixture, stating: "There is going to be a great atmosphere and our latest two wins have set us up nicely for it. We will go in with confidence, we have got a lot of positives and now we have to put on a show at the iPro Stadium."

The 23-year-old was signed by Derby County this summer from recently relegated Hull City, following a season-long loan, and scored the only goal of the game on Tuesday, as his side claimed a 1-0 win at the Madejski sSadium, following Reading's Orlando Sa receiving a straight red card for a headbutt on Jason Shackell.

Derby County currently sit in eighth place in the Sky Bet Championship table, following their back-to-back wins, but still remain two points outside the play-off places, and nine points off top of the table Brighton and Hove Albion.

Monday's opponents, Burnley, are currently third after claiming their fourth successive league win last Tuesday, with a 2-1 win over MK Dons at Turf Moor.
