Prediction: 2-2
Preston
Huddersfield Town will be aiming to make amends for a heavy 5-1 loss to Fulham when they take on Preston at Kirklees Stadium on Tuesday evening. The Terriers are determined to give fans some cheer following the embarrassing defeat, and they are likely to fight tooth and nail in the midweek clash. Keep in mind, though, that both Aarons and Rowe are out of contention through injuries for the home team.
The Lilywhites, on the other hand, aim to bounce back from back-to-back losses to Hull City and Reading. Preston are stuck at the bottom of the table, and seeing that they will go for a win in Tuesday’s clash as well, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Rudd has joined Bron and Olosunde in the recovery room, while Bayliss has been tested positive for coronavirus. The 22-year-old midfielder is rated doubtful for the Kirkless Stadium showdown.
