Match Result Prediction: Preston to Win
Preston North End faced consecutive setbacks coming into this game but they have excelled at Deepdale Stadium. The Lilywhites have gone undefeated in the previous six home games and recorded four victories. On the other hand, Blackburn are winless in six consecutive games and faced three defeats. The Rovers have also lost three of the previous four matches away from Ewood Park. Preston has won three of the last five home meetings against Blackburn and we expect another one for them on Saturday.
Both Teams to Score Prediction: Yes
Despite going winless in the recent consecutive road trips, Blackburn Rovers have managed to score in four of the last five matches. But the Riversiders have been unable to claim a clean sheet in that duration. On the other hand, Preston North End have also rattled the net in four of the previous five games at Deepdale Stadium. Four of the previous five meetings of these teams at Preston’s home have also ended with both teams scoring. Following these stats, we believe to see a BTTS outcome in this game.
Correct Score Prediction: 2-1 to Preston
Blackburn scored five goals in the last four games away from Ewood Park while allowing nine at the back. On the other hand, Preston has found the back of the net more than once in four of the last five matches at Deepdale Stadium. The Lilywhites have leaked only one goal per game in three matches in the aforementioned period, keeping two clean sheets. In the H2Hs, the Riversiders have been limited to one goal in three of the last four meetings with Preston. Hence, we predict the Invincibles to earn a 2-1 lead at the end of the ninety minutes of this game.
Preston vs Blackburn: Form, Recent Games, and News
Preston North End Preview
The Lilywhites’ aspirations for the playoffs have suffered a blow following a defeat against Swansea City. Preston scored twice after the break but the convincing first half from the Swans and a stoppage-time goal witnessed a 4-2 loss for the Invincibles. The team’s training regimen has not been great with Ched Evans and three other players missing the upcoming match due to injuries.
Blackburn Rovers Preview
The Rovers witnessed the consecutive third league draw in the last game against Coventry City at Ewood Park. Blackburn initially led the game through Sam Gallagher in the 39th minute but Coventry’s Ben Wilson’s stoppage-time goal saw Blackburn lose two points. Manager Jon Dahl Tomasson will also have to contend with four players in the next game’s plan.
