Championship action on Saturday as Bristol City head to Preston. The home side are 16th while the away team are 11th. We dig into this match to make our prediction as The Lilywhites take on The Robins.

Preston has only lost once in their last nine games in all competitions, that was a 1-3 defeat at Millwall. Six home games in the league have seen them pick up three wins, two draws and a single defeat which came on the opening weekend against Sheffield United.

A run of three clean sheets in a row has fallen apart. They lost a 2-0 lead at home to Norwich and worse still, coughed up a 3-0 lead at Plymouth to only earn a point. That wobble needs to be brought under control.

Their visitors won 2-0 at Middlesbrough, sandwiched by draws at Swansea and Stoke. They are on a seven-match unbeaten run in the league, although five of those have been draws.

Seven draws in 12 league games is the most in the league, adding to that with a scoreless effort at home to Leeds last Saturday.

Our Preston North End vs Bristol City Prediction

Both of these sides have been a little on the inconsistent side this season. Paul Heckingbottom will be desperate to get his Preston team back to the level that saw four clean sheets in five games from September 19 to October 22.

Bristol City are also more than capable of keeping things tight and perhaps the draw experts in the Championship will add another one here. These teams could cancel one another out so our Preston vs Bristol City prediction is for under 2.5 goals.
