Bournemouth will be hoping to take another giant stride towards the Premier League with three points at Preston North End this Saturday. Scott Parker’s men head to Deepdale in second spot in the EFL Championship table after racking up 61 points from 31 matches. However, the Lilywhites have not been an easy team to beat under Ryan Lowe, and North End will be hoping to stop a three-game winless run this weekend. This promises to be an entertaining encounter in Lancashire. Check out the best odds and tips.

Preston North End Preview – Can the Lilywhites get back on track with three points?

Preston North End were tipped for a season of struggle before a ball was kicked. Although they were never in the relegation picture, Frankie McAvoy was sacked in December after a poor run of results.

Ryan Lowe took over and has turned Preston into a tough nut to crack. In fact, in the Championship, only Swansea City and Reading have beaten Lowe’s North End. Preston are without a win in three after a defeat and two draws, however.

Our betting prediction:
Both teams to score – No

Preston will not give up hope on the play-offs until it is mathematically impossible, but the Lancashire club have slipped seven points behind sixth after recent results. Still, can they get back on track with a massive three points on Saturday?

Bournemouth Preview – Cherries to make it five league wins on the trot?

After a slump in form, Bournemouth have certainly found their feet again. The Cherries head into this one having won six of their past eight in the Championship and four on the bounce. They are nine points behind leaders Fulham with two games in hand.

Since falling to back-to-back defeats to Luton Town and Hull City in January, the Cherries have responded with four straight wins. Last time out, late goals from Dominic Solanke and Jamal Lowe gave Bournemouth a 2-1 home victory over Stoke City.

Preston North End vs Bournemouth Betting Advice

Preston became the first team to beat Bournemouth in the league this season when they won at the Vitality Stadium in early November. North End were worthy winners on the day, with Ben Whiteman and Alistair McCann on target in a 2-1 victory.

When the duo last locked horns at Deepdale, Daniel Johnson’s late effort cancelled out Arnaut Danjuma’s first-half strike. Preston won 3-2 at the Vitality a few months earlier.

 

Key Facts – Preston North End vs Bournemouth Betting Tip

  • Preston have suffered just two league defeats since Lowe’s arrival
  • Bournemouth have won four league matches on the bounce
  • North End have won four and drawn three of their last seven meetings with the Cherries

 

Preston have been tough to beat lately, but Bournemouth are flying again and should collect maximum points from Saturday’s trip to Lancashire. There is superb value in 11/4 for the away team to win -1.

Dominic Solanke has helped himself to 20 Championship goals this season, with only the prolific Aleksandar Mitrovic netting more. Back Solanke to open the scoring in this one at the solid odds of 9/2.
