Preston had shown nice results in the end of last year, taking three wins, three draws and two defeats in their last eight league matches. Such run of results allowed the team to move up in the middle of standings on 13th place with 32 points gained and 31-31 aggregate goal difference. 11 away matches got the team only 15 points, while 10 of these points were gained in recent five away games.
The opponents faced one another for the first time in a while in reverse fixture earlier this season that ended with 1-1 draw. We should expect the away team to be competitive in these away match and at least avoid defeat in these matchup.
Prediction for the match: Preston to win with +0,5 Asian handicap.
