Eight places separate Coventry City and Preston North End on the Championship standings ahead of their Saturday meeting. Hosts Coventry are seventh and Preston 15th ahead of the match and below we have a prediction.

Coventry are just a point outside the promotion play-off positions. With 13 matches left to play, Coventry will want to make the most of such opportunities.

They are coming from two straight wins, the most recent a 2-1 victory at Sheffield Wednesday. The Sky Blues will be desperate to carry their away form to this fixture.

Coventry City posted three straight away wins ahead of this game, yet they lost twice in the last three home matches.

In the last 14 meetings between these two sides, Preston North End are unbeaten. They actually won each of the last three and this run will build their confidence ahead of the Saturday match.

Preston may be placed low, but they are well in the promotion play-offs picture, being just six points out. Their race towards the top six was slowed down by back-to-back draws, the most recent being the 1-1 outcome at Millwall.

Three clean sheets in their last four matches should offer some belief heading into this game. However, Preston have managed just a win in their last five matches across all competitions.
