Our prediction for this Championship match:
Saturday’s football game at Deepdale pits together Preston and Swansea City, the two bottom-table sides. The Lilywhites desperately needed a win against Peterborough United, and they managed to get one, with the team putting an end to their three-game losing run. The triumph gave Preston footballers a confidence boost, and it is no wonder the odds for home win have been dropping. All Brown, Olosunde, and Barkhuizen are likely to miss the game with injuries.
The Swans, on the other hand, head into the match following a hard-fought 1-0 win over Bristol City. The Welsh outfit recorded their first win of the process at the weekend, but seeing that Andre Ayew has been sorely missed at the start of the season, away win should not be considered. New signing Joel Piroe should continue to lead the line for the visitors after scoring the winner against Bristol City.
Highlighted Player (Scott Sinclair):
At the age of nine, Scott Sinclair joined Bristol Rovers youth school and seven years later he signed a deal with Chelsea. However, the winger played no more than five league games for Chelsea as he spent a big part of his career on loan at Plymouth, QPR, Charlton, Crystal Palace, Birmingham City, Wigan Athletic, WBA and Aston Villa. He played for Swansea City between 2010 and 2012, scoring 28 goals in 82 league appearances for the Welsh outfit.
On 19 May, 2015 Sinclair signed a permanent deal with Aston Villa, but he failed to impress in the 2015/2016 Premier League campaign. He scored only two goals in 21 league appearances for the team and the Villans eventually dropped to the Championship.
The Aston Villa winger, who is capable of playing on both sides of the field, has 7 caps for England U21 and it has to be noted that he made 4 appearances for Great Britain, scoring one goal for Team GB. Scott Sinclair was born in Bath, England on 25 March, 1989.
