The Derby winger has scored in his last two games.
Derby County are determined to return to the Premier League and, if they are to achieve that objective, Andreas Weimann is likely to play a major part in proceedings.
The hard-working winger has produced some encouraging performances this season, catching the eye with his contributions defensively in addition to providing several assists.
Weimann isn’t known for being prolific in front of goal, but the Austrian has found the net twice in as many games, scoring in the victories against Barnsley and his former club Aston Villa – his first strikes of the season.
Although he was forced off with a knock in the latter fixture, Weimann is expected to be available for Derby’s next game, which sees them host Millwall on Saturday.
Weimann will hope that he can now start to find the net with greater regularity and if he was to do so then it would be hugely beneficial for Derby in their quest to secure a place in the play-offs.
Matej Vydra is Derby’s leading scorer this season with twelve goals in the Championship, but if Weimann was to step up then it would ease the burden on the Czech Republic attacker.
