Preston North End Stoke City betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This is a very complicated game to predict the final score, since it puts in the field two teams with different difficulties in their game model. Still, we expect Stoke City to dominate ball possession and enjoy more chances to score goals, however, with difficulties in finishing. On the other hand, Preston should act more on the counterattack, looking for the wings to create danger, but they will also experience problems in scoring. Thus, we believe in a very balanced game with few goals on the final scoreboard.

Preview
Preston North End and Stoke City face at Deepdale, in a match for the 3rd round of the Championship. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 1 win and 2 draws in the last 3 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 21‑08‑2019, in a match for the Championship, Preston North End won by (3‑1). In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Preston

The home team is currently in the 16th position of the league, with 1 point won. In their debut, they lost in a home match against Swansea City, by (0‑1). In the second round, they tied in an away match against Norwich City, by (2‑2). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 19 goals scored and 18 conceded; against 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses at their stadium, with 16 goals scored and 21 conceded. In their last match, for the League Cup, they got a home loss against Brighton & Hove Albion by (0‑2). In the last 10 home matches Preston North End has won 3, tied 2 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.

Preston North End come to this clash unmotivated after a 1-0 loss to Brighton, in a game counting for the League Cup. It should be noted that the home team have not yet won in this championship: in the last round they drew (2-2) against Norwich. In this game against Stoke City, coach Alex Neil should maintain the 4-3-3, with Sean Maguire being the most advanced player of the team. On the other hand, Scott Sinclair is one of Preston's top scorers, with 1 goal signed. For this match the manager can count on all his players.

Confirmed Lineup: Declan Rudd, Jordan Storey, Patrick Bauer, Ben Davies, Ben Pearson, Alan Browne, Ryan Ledson, Tom Barkhuizen, Jayden Stockley, Sean Maguire, Scott Sinclair.

Analysis Stoke

The away team is currently in the 18th position of the league, with 1 point won. In their debut they tied in an away match against Millwall, by (0‑0). In the second round, they lost in a home match against Bristol City, by (0‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 13 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 9 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 11 conceded. In their last match, for the League Cup, they got a home win against Gillingham by (1‑0). In the last 10 away matches Stoke City has won 4, tied 4 and lost 2. Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 3 of the last 10 matches. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 34 of the last 56 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals.

Stoke City come to this clash motivated after a 1-0 home win over Gillingham, advancing to the next stage of the League Cup. Like the opponent of this round, the visitors have not yet won in the championship. Now, in this game against Preston, coach Michael O'Neill should keep the team in the usual tactical system, favoring the maintenance of ball possession and attacks organized through the aisles: Jaco Brown is a very fast and very strong player in the offensive transition. The entire squad is available for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Adam Davies, Tommy Smith, Morgan Fox, Harry Souttar, James Chester, John Mikel Obi, James McClean, Tashan Oakley-Boothe, Sam Clucas, Steven Fletcher, Lee Gregory.
