The match

A stuttering Leeds United (third, 76 points) will look to get back to the automatic promotion places, when they visit Preston North End (tenth, 57 points). The hosts are five points behind top-six and their unlikely promotion bid has been halted by successive losses. Prior to that, the hosts went on a 12-match unbeaten run (W8, D4). Playing at home in the Championship, the hosts have lost just once in their last eight games (W2, L5, L1) although that loss came in their previous fixture. Preston have drawn nine of their 20 Championship home matches, which is the highest among all sides in the division bar Ipswich Town. Leeds lost two of their last three matches (W1, L2) and have dropped eight points behind top-placed Norwich. Also, they are now one point behind second-paced Sheffield United, to go with their joint-third best defensive record of the season (42 conceded). Playing away from home in the division, they have lost two of their last four Championship matches (W2, L2) and have lost four of their last eight divisional matches away from home (W3, D1, L4).

Key Statistics

  • Preston North End have scored in 31 of their 40 Championship matches, and Leeds United in 35 of their 40 matches this season.
  • There have been over 2.5 goals scored in 20 of Preston North End’s 40 Championship matches this season.
  • Leeds United have won five of the last nine matches against Preston North End in all competitions.

The bet of our experts

Leeds United have been stuttering in the recent matches, failing to take advantage in the race to promotion. They were leading in the Championship points tally not long ago, but the loss of momentum mean that they have all to play for, in this match against Preston North End. The hosts have an outside chance of making it to the play-offs and need a win as well. However, the visitors should start as favourites and could walk away with a win.
