Leicester vs Preston North End Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Sridhar in Championship Predictions
It’s one versus three in the Championship as Leicester welcome Preston North End to their King Power Stadium on Wednesday. The hosts are top after nine matches with 24 points and a two-point lead over Ipswich, while the visitors are two points further behind in third. Leicester have won eight and lost just once in the league this season, giving them a strong start in their quest to earn promotion. With 18 goals, it is their offensive strength that is leading the charge as Leicester have the joint-second best scoring record so far. At the other end, their defensive shift has seen them concede just six goals making them the best team in the league on that count. They have been impressive at home as well, winning three and losing just once in the Championship this season.
Preston have been the surprise package of the campaign so far, staying in the top-three hunt. In fact, if not for their recent blip, they could have been much closer to the Foxes. The visitors are coming off a run of two games where they could win just a single point. This has nullified a run of six straight wins, although it is still early days to rule them out. The Lilywhites have been steady with their performances this season, scoring 13 goals and letting in ten. What should spur their hopes is their mildly impressive away record in the league. Preston are unbeaten on the road this season, winning and drawing two league games each. They scored in each of those four and will fancy their chances of getting on the board once more.
