Betting on Preston North End
Preston North End has had an inconsistent season with 14 wins, 11 draws, and 13 losses in 38 games. Their mediocre performance has only been enough to secure a spot in the middle of the standings with 53 points. To make matters worse, in their last game, they suffered a crushing 4-0 defeat against Middlesbrough, putting an end to their seven-game unbeaten streak.
Despite their recent loss, Preston North End has a solid home record, having gone undefeated in their last four games with two wins and two draws. Their most recent home game was a 2-0 victory against Cardiff, and they’ve managed to keep two consecutive clean sheets.
Probable lineup (3-1-4-2): Freddie Woodman; Jordan Storey, Andrew Hughes, Greg Cunningham; Benjamin Whiteman; Brad Potts, Alan Browne, Daniel Johnson, Robbie Brady; Thomas Cannon, Ched Evans.
Betting on Blackpool
Blackpool is still struggling after losing 1-4 to Coventry in the previous round. This result marked their 19th defeat of the season, alongside eight victories and 11 draws. With only 35 points, they currently sit in the relegation zone, occupying the 23rd place. However, if they manage to win this match, they could potentially climb up a spot in the standings. But, let’s be real, they would still be at risk of getting relegated.
Blackpool has one of the worst defenses in the league, having conceded 58 goals so far with an average of 1.52 goals per game. They’ve only managed to win three away games, making them the fourth-worst team in that regard.
Probable lineup (3-1-4-2): Chris Maxwell; Curtis Nelson, Jordan Thorniley, James Husband; Callum Connolly; Andy Lyons, Charlie Patino, Lewis Fiorini, CJ Hamilton; Jerry Yates, Morgan Rogers.
JefeBet Prediction
Blackpool registers a negative run of 10 away games without a win in the Championship, and in that time six consecutive defeats. With those negative numbers, the favorite to win this game is Preston, who have played well in their last few home games.
Blackpool took the first meeting between the two this season by a score of 4-2, but the situation now looks complicated and is not expected to be able to repeat that feat.
Prediction: Preston North End wins by a score of 1-0.
