Team News

Preston
Bristol City
  • Robbie Brady suffered an injury during the game against Plymouth last weekend and will miss the next few weeks through injury.
  • Brad Potts will replace him in what will be an elsewhere unchanged starting XI.
  • Liam Manning will welcome Joe Williams back to the starting line-up after he served a one-match suspension last weekend.
  • Ross McCrorie suffered a knock during the game against Leeds, so expect Kal Naismith to step into the team on Saturday.

Prediction

  • Preston were leading 3-0 after just 48 minutes against Plymouth last weekend, but Wayne Rooney's side staged a spirited fightback, recovering to take a point with a stoppage-time equaliser. Despite that disappointing collapse, the home side are now unbeaten in their last five Championship matches.
  • Bristol City attempted just four shots against promotion hopefuls Leeds last weekend but a strong defensive showing helped the Robins take home a point. Liam Manning's men are unbeaten in seven league outings, although five of those matches have ended as draws.
