Prediction: 2-1
Blackburn Rovers
Preston and Blackburn face each other at Deepdale in the closing match of Saturday’s program. The Lilywhites failed to impress in back-to-back losses at Millwall and Swansea, but they are on a three-game winning run on home soil ahead of the visit of Blackburn. Ched Evans is out for the rest of the season through illness, while all Alan Browne, Greg Cunningham, and Emil Riis Jakobsen remain in the recovery room.
The Riversiders, on the other hand, are eager to stay in the playoffs places. Blackburn, though, are not regarded as good travellers, and given their five-match winless run in the English second tier, we predict that Preston are going to pick up all three points from the Deepdale showdown. As for the away team, all Jack Vale, Clinton Mola, and Daniel Ayala are out of contention through injuries, while talented midfielder Tyrhys Dolan is pushing for a start.
