Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 3-0
Preston
Buoyed by a hard-fought 1-0 win over Middlesbrough, Leeds United will look to retain top position in the standings when they take on Preston on Matchday 42. The Whites are determined to return to the Premier League and a win over Preston will see them move one step closer to meeting the goal. Daniel James, who limped off with injury in the midweek clash, is unlikely to recover in time to face Preston, with pacey winger Wilfried Gnonto being ready to step up.
The Lilywhites, on the other hand, are sitting in 16th place in the standings. As Preston are safe for now, we predict that the promotion-chasing hosts are going to pick up all three points from Saturday’s encounter. Both Jack Whatmough and Frederick Woodman are sidelined with injuries for the visiting team, while Brad Potts will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Highlighted Player (Robbie Brady):
Robbie Brady is an Irish footballer who plays for Norwich City as a winger, but he is capable of playing at left back as well. Brady began his youth career at St. Kevin’s Boys, where he was spotted by Manchester United scouts. In 2008 he joined the Old Trafford outfit at age 16.
He played for Manchester United U-18 team, but he did not make his debut for the senior team. The Irish footballer played for Hull City on loan in the 2011/2012 and the 2012/2013 Championship campaigns and in January, 2013 he signed a permanent deal with the Tigers for an undisclosed fee. Robbie Brady made his Republic of Ireland debut on 8 September, 2012, in a 4-1 win over Oman and it has to be noted that he scored one goal and provided two assists for his teammates in the victory over the Asian team.
He represented the Boys in Green at the 2016 European Championship finals and he scored the winner against Italy that helped the team make it to the knockout stages of the showpiece tournament.
Highlighted Team (Leeds United):
Leeds United is one of the clubs that won the FA Cup. The Whites outplayed Arsenal in the final of the prestigious competition back in 1972, but they clinched the League Cup trophy as well. Leeds United faced the Gunners in the 1967/1968 League Cup final and it has to be noted that Terry Cooper scored the winner for the Whites.
Leeds play their home games at Elland Road and the capacity of the stadium is 37,914. The club was founded in 1919 and they have won three First Division (Premier League) trophies ever since (1968/1969, 1973/1974, 1991/1992). Leeds United made it to the Champions League final in 1975, but they were beaten by Bayern Munich in the title clash.
The Whites were impressive under David O’Leary. The likes of Jonathan Woodgate, Lee Bowyer, Harry Kewell, Mark Viduka and Ian Harte were part of the Elland Road outfit back then and they did well to reach the semis of the Champions League in 2001.
