Preston NE Preview – Can Preston continue revival?
An impressive 3-2 win away from home at Bournemouth followed by a 2-2 draw with Wycombe Wanderers have handed Preston North End with four points from their last two matches in the Championship and they’ll be in confident mood as they prepare for the visit of Middlesbrough on Wednesday night.
Inconsistent results overall though so far this season has resulted in Preston currently occupying 15th place in the Championship table and it doesn’t bode well for this upcoming clash against Middlesbrough that the hosts have lost six of their eight matches to date at Deepdale.
An overall home record of 1-1-6 4/12 includes just the one win against Sheffield Wednesday but six defeats along with failing to score in five of their eight matches to date means that Preston could be up against it here.
Middlesbrough Preview – Can Middlesbrough climb up table again?
Three defeats out of their last five matches overall in the Championship have seen Middlesbrough drop down the Championship table to 11th place but a win at Deepdale on Wednesday night could lift the visitors to within touching distance of the play-off pack.
Recent losses to Norwich City, Huddersfield Town and Stoke City have taken the wind out of Neil Warnock’s Boro side but they’d previously put together a solid run of 10 matches without defeat so they’re more than capable of grinding out a result here.
However, having managed just one win out of their last eight matches on their travels, an away win for Boro may be asking a little too much but they should at least avoid defeat here given Preston’s poor record so far this season at Deepdale.
