Derby County have registered their fifth away win in the Championship this season by earning a narrow victory at Bournemouth.
Jamie Ward's fourth goal in five games, which came on 61 minutes, was enough to give the Rams all three points at Dean Court.
Craig Forsyth's deep cross found Ward at the far post and the Northern Ireland international slammed home.
The Rams, who boast the league's best away goalscoring record, came close to doubling their lead late on.
Johnny Russell, making his first appearance since breaking his leg in October, sent Mason Bennett through on goal, but Lee Camp rushed off his line to make an impressive last-ditch save.
The result sees Derby climb to seventh in the table, while Bournemouth fall to 16th.
