Preston North End

Preston North End finished on 13th in the Championship last year. The team couldn't put up a fight against the leaders of their league, but had several brilliant games.

After the first 14 rounds of the new season, Preston North End have 15 points (3 victories and 6 draws) and are only 19th in the standings. On their way to the last 16 in the League Cup, Preston North End defeated Morecambe (4:2) and Cheltenham (4:1).

There are a few injury concerns for Preston. Evans, Wickham, Brown, Olosunde, and McCann won't be able to play today.
