Our prediction for this Championship match:
Bristol City and Everton go head to head at Ashton Gate Stadium in what is expected to be a close Championship encounter. The Robins quickly bounced back from a 1-0 loss to Swansea City, with the team beating Cardiff City on the road before the international break. Bristol City aim to keep on climbing the standings, but Saturday’s football match will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts. Callum O’Dowda is rated doubtful for the match, while fellow midfielder Joe Williams remains in the recovery room.
The Lilywhites, on the other hand, have been showings signs of improvement, with the team beating both Peterborough and Swansea in the previous two league fixtures. Preston are high on confidence ahead of the trip to Bristol, and seeing that the Robins are a real force to be reckoned with at home, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Both Browne and Barkhuizen have been tested positive for coronavirus, while Brown and Olosunde are sidelined with injuries.

Preston North End or Preston were founded in 1880. The Lilywhites or the Invincibles play their home games at Deepdale, the stadium that was built in 1875 and opened three years later.
In 1889 Preston won their first FA Cup trophy and they did well to beat Huddersfield Town in the final of the 1938 FA Cup final. However, the club’s biggest success came in 1889 and 1890 when they won back-to-back domestic trophies (First Division).
Preston have yet to win the League Cup title, but they were runners-up in 1888, 1922, 1937, 1954, 1964. Preston’s main rivals are Blackpool and the two teams square off against each other in the West Lancashire derby.
